Catcher DD wants to buy a new glove and break it in before her current one wears out. She wanted the same glove, the All Star Vela Pro CMW3000 (tan and black) but they have discontinued it and replaced it with the All Star Pro CMW3000, dropping Vela from the name. It also has no black on it...
Looking to hold a beginning of season "games" event to get the players laughing, competing and bonding. Looking for obstacle course type and funny skills type games we can set up under the lights out on a field.
Thought about hitting off a tee to a target, pool cue a ball across the field...

Two strikes, batter swung and missed a change up. Ball hits the ground, but home plate ump doesn't see it and calls batter out. Batter runs to 1st. Catcher does not tag batter or throw to 1st. Offense coach pleads his case that ball touched the ground, plate ump asks his partner for help and...
I'm still trying to figure out what the difference is between a fastball thrown with IR (12 -6 spin) and a drop? Sluggers mentioned that softball folks in the know see the difference.
Unless the pitcher changes spin, I can't see how the two pitches are any different. Is that the goal? Only...
Catcher DD has battled some acne for a year or so, and she's beginning to notice that it gets worse after tournaments and clears up greatly when she's on a week or two break. Anyone battled this and if so, any tricks to fighting it? Thought about cleaning the mask a couple times and her...
Over throw leaves field of play. How many bases do runners get one or two? I thought I remember something from baseball that the over throw is one and leaving the field of play is a second base but not sure about fastpitch? ASA and USSSA. Thanks
10u. Runner on 3b. Batter believes she just saw ball four, drops the bat and proceeded to first. Coach sends her to 2b, pitcher throws the ball into center field. Run scores. After dust settles, umpire says hold on, that was only 3 balls and runner must go back to 3b. Coaches say run should...
At launch, does anyone use the cue "keep the barrel close to the shoulder" to prevent casting? If so, does it translate into an unexpected problem? Rock the U and turn the triangle with demonstration isn't working with a couple inexperienced hitters. Thanks for any help.
...with a team who can win when they get three runs up, but will never come back when they get three runs down? They play with energy as long as they are winning. The look drained when they are behind. Defense is solid when they up; they make the most errors when they get down. Early in the...

Oldest DD has used a Nokona Buckaroo for the last year or so, but she can't do a swipe tag without the ball flying out. Not sure if it's broken in wrong or what? The thumb side seems super stiff. She keeps a ball in it religiously. Anyway, she wants a new glove but I'm not sure which way to...
