    Jocelyn Alo

    She has a swing where she can time up the pitch and square it up with power. May not be picture perfect but with her skill set, it works well. Reminds me of of the big kids that dominate in Little League and people say "that swing won't translate to the big field". With her, she is already on...

    Dealing with team's diamond diva

    Time to move on, focus should be on Softball and playing. Why spend all the energy and effort thinking about, talking about the SS? It does no good. Nip it in the bud at the beginning and be done with unproductive behavior, don't be part of it. If you are good with your play at catcher, move on...

    How to make side by side videos

    What are you doing to fix DBSF

    Stever - What are the things which standout for the top video swing to be more successful or the bottom swing not as successful?

    From best player to worst player

    Actually a good spot to be in. Much better than being the best on a inferior team. Watch and learn from the others, compete to get better. Strive and work hard to develop the skills she is lacking or behind in. Short term struggle can lead to a long term payoff.
