My friend's daughter verbally committed as a junior to a DII school.
She was told by a third party (not the school) that she can no longer have any contact with any
other potential college softball coaches. They cannot contact her nor she contact them.
He was adamant that its a written rule...
Yes my daughter is a pitcher. She pitches 3-4 times/week. No pain whatsoever. Only bending over or sitting.
Goingdeep doesn't degenerative disc disease show up in an xray? Thank you for your very caring response...
My daughter is 15 yo and plays softball and volleyball.
She is 5' 6" 160 lbs.
This past November she felt pain in her lower back after doing strength and conditioning exercises
When she bends over or sits it hurts..... Dull pain in one spot.
She has had X-Rays that show nothing.
She goes...
Thank you all so much for your feedback. I have read as much as I could find regarding IR.
Until I find a PC willing to each IR, etc. I am on my own.
Couple of questions if you don't mind..
1. If we place our IR focus on the release, might the arm at the prior positions work itself out...

The concern she has with the dropball is that she feels that many of the batters around here are taught to swing down thaen up through the strikezone thereby making the drop easier to hit than the rise.
thank you for the feedback. She had been working on the drop for about 6 months and the rise of about 3 months. With the season quickly approaching we wanted to concentrate on only one other pitch. Her TB coach is not a huge fan of the drop ball so we decided to really work on the rise. Her...
She's been live pitching in a tunnel to her teammates over the last few months. In November, nobody could touch her, the last few times, however, the batters are hitting her. Hard for me to tell how well being it's fairly narrow. She tells me she doesn't enjoy "tunnel pitching" as she is...
We live in Massachusetts. My DD has been pitching for 2 years.
She pitched on a mediocre travel team last year as a 2nd year twelve
Played middle school ball as a 7th grader but did not pitch.
Currently has been working real hard pitching three times/week and
having a lesson once/week.
Her...

Opinions please....
To improve a players game would it be better to play on a strong team with good coaching and get very minimal playing time or a weaker team with minimal coaching and get tons of playing time?
What if you were the pitcher, would that change the situation?
