Gd I agree with you but we are always told as parents, dont interfere with the HC and or coaches in high school. Even done in a non threating manner, some HS coaches are so full of themselves they wont take it as a helpful observation but a knock and critizism on their wealth of softball knowlege.
I think it is up to each team to determine whether they help them or not - regardless of level. If hiding your signs is important, they are an easy and reliable way to do it.The wristband thing is overkill for TB or HS. It really is hurting the rhythm of the game and the concentration of the players. This started at younger ages more because the kids don't listen or forget, not for picking.
In HS we had a pitcher looking at the wristband as part of her pitching motion. Wow, and it was not smooth and probably illegal. She only had three pitches, so can someone explain why she had to look at it every batter at least 3X and every inning until the end? Are the signals changing every inning? Plus we could still see the coach's signals and align them with pitches at the beginning. We just decided it was not worth our time.
