Hey all. I just came across this site and read a few of the threads. I'm super excited. My DD (who is 11) started pitching in May and I have been working with her since. I've seen every crazy youtube pitching vid out there and finally thought to look for a forum of people that might be going through the same thing.

I will be reading through the threads before I start posting questions and/or vids but I just wanted to throw up a quick "hey" to everyone.

Welcome to DFP! You've come to the right place. Good call on the YouTube videos. Very, very few offer anything I would recommend to anyone. In my opinion, these are among the best free videos available on the internet:

The stickies at the top of the Pitching page are loaded with about anything you could possibly need to help you and your daughter's journey.

Also, the new guy is responsible for coffee. I like it very dark with a little sugar and cream, thanks.

Haha... round of coffee on me then! You guys might have to drive a long way to come get it though.

Thanks for the vid links. I can't wait to check them out!

I've already come across a couple of terms in the forums that I am not familiar with. I'm digging through to find a better understanding before I start asking questions that warrant the response of, "Read the previous forums, newb!"

I see you already got the welcome info from Ken. He is a level 5 and is mostly clear. He has few engrams left. The kool aid is refreshing...would you like a glass? Purple capes and Nikes need to be removed before posting.

Welcome to the site. Don't be afraid to ask questions to people here. You might get an occasional smart rear answer, but there a some people here with an amazing wealth of knowledge who are willing to help.

wow a Glossary... I hadn't found that yet. I guess I have more pages to search.

Welcome Mountainman this is a fun place to sit on the bench and learn from everyone. I'm still new enough to this forum (5 months) and do not know anyone but you will soon get a good look at the ones you kinda want to follow and ones you might not agree with. But we are all wanting to advance our kids and the sport, so have a great time searching through the pages.
