    Perpelexed on how to increase arm speed (Video)

    My daughter is 5'4 130lbs 12yo. This is beginning her third year pitching. Last year she had a shoulder impingement that through PT and proper technique we thought we were back on track. She has hit a wall and I am clueless. Her pitching coach is saying she should be throwing so much harder...

    Team Decision (Try Outs Dilemma)

    CoogansBluff, That is correct Team B #1 (she is alot better) Team B#2 (better than most but she will not be playing alot of ball but will get circle time). Team A circle time will be though but will be pushed to another level of play. (my opinion) Carla

    DD wants to play for the A team, but she wants to pitch too. She asked me what could we do, I said let me think about it.

    Team Decision (Try Outs Dilemma)

    All, I need your help. My 11yo (03) kid started softball last summer (rec league). She loved and worked really hard during the summer and made a B league select team. This team has decent coaches but 70% of the kids do not practice outside of the game. She also pitches and gets 50% of the...

    DD "B" is no longer a pitcher.

    Guys.. I needed this as well. I am a pretty aggressive mom that every once in a while needs to realize this is her dreams not mine. This song sums it up: John Mayer & Brad Paisley - Daughters - YouTube
