    A Little Scared for my Daughter

    Wow that's a lot of assumptions. I bet your days are full of surprises. Again It was not just a mask issue, its the throw a mask on and that solves everything issue.

    A Little Scared for my Daughter

    You're an idiot. Did I say anything about your post or your experience? No. If you did not say anything like that then whats your problem? If you agree with me about practicing the positions why is your lace panties all wadded up? I have an opinion and I shared it. How does that make me a...

    A Little Scared for my Daughter

    Yeah I would probably stay away from my experience since you have no clue what it is sir. That might save you from some embarrassment later on. Congratulations my friend you found a handful of players, common sense tells anyone that its the minority that wear them in college and not just D-1...

    A Little Scared for my Daughter

    The lack of understanding was directed to the posters who's solution was to get her a facemask. That's my opinion due to my fast experience in common sense. Oh and I would love for someone to go and pull the statistics of D-1 players wearing face masks at 3rd...I'll be waiting.

    A Little Scared for my Daughter

    ^^^^ This is the most accurate statement I have seen yet. The get her a mask replies are ridiculous and show a lack of understanding all together. Don't go out there smoking balls at her as that is no help. She needs to learn the proper footwork, glove work, and body positions to help maintain...

    Any tips for my daughter?

    Wow was that your version of a tip? Picking on a 9 y/o with a three sentence answer? I'm sure that's just the feedback he was looking for. I'm sure he understands all the complex stages of hitting, well you apparently assume he does so why stop at bat dragging? If your going to pick it apart...

    So tired of hearing "it's not fair" from other parents

    Title IX is only worth the paper it's printed on unless someone understands, comprehends, and hold those in power accountable for it at the lower levels. Buy lower levels I mean HS. NCAA is looking to nail anyone on these that's not a money making power house as well. Follow the dollars.....

    fall sports

    Lane assignments? Really? How does lane assignments in any type of swimming dictate anything? I'm not a swimmer but I know that a straight line is a straight line period. If I am wrong please educate me.

    Equipment Frustrations!

    BOOM^^^^My man hit it right there except for the $200.00 bat part..more like $299.99-$349.99. It's simple economics 101. It's been 20 years since I took it it in college but that's about the most simplistic explanation that fits today's business model as your gonna get. It's all about volume...

    Showcase Play

    Yes. Don't think twice about playing in it unless you feel your team could not compete with the teams entered. Go have fun. It may open a door or change the mind of a player on your team. You might want to educate your players and parents on the options besides D-1. If you feel like you do not...

    To pitch or not to pitch

    If she wants to know why she did not pitch I would of instructed my daughter to ask the coach. I understand you hesitation on asking the coach and not wanting to come across a certain way. You can't start early enough teaching them to talk with the coaching staff and to stop relying on mommy and...

    Assistants

    That is dumb....Everyone knows it's the seventh time that sinks in.

    Assistants

    I use 3 1/2. Head coach and two assistants with another coach working the tee and net before plate appearances. As many have said all have defined rolls. I work with pitcher/catcher, pitch calling, and pitch/hitter charting. First assistant is responsible for infield/outfield adjustments and...

    I hate it when.......

    Parents complaining about a heavy schedule and how their child needs a break then call and ask for permission to pick up with another team on the three off weekends we have. Parents asking me which size bat is best suited for their DD then getting something completely different. TD gives you...
