    Difference in 10u softball and 10u baseball?

    The boys will be more athletic than the girls at that age unless your baseball experience was little league. PONY has much better players than little league. The boys throw harder and farther, the smaller ball helps there. The boys will also run faster and be more competitive on average. Boys...

    College recruiting and showcases

    All 3 of my sons played D1 baseball and with all 3 of them it was their travel coaches/organizations and hitting and fielding coaches that were paramount in them getting their scholarships. Their HS coaches were pretty much worthless in that aspect. The showcases were alright but my oldest got...

    Things College Softball Announcers Can Quit Saying

    I hate when they have male announcers call softball games. Girls are the only ones playing, for now, all the announcers should be female. I also hate when they say that a players dad in the stands is wearing a throwback California Angels hat or a blacked out Oakland A's hat. They're...

    Closed web for pitcher?

    My kid uses the 11.75 A2000 with the I web to pitch in 14u. I was thinking about getting her the Romero signature glove for HS as it matches the schools colors. Glove Smith makes custom webs that i can relace her gloves with if the open webs ever become a problem. Wilson are sort of jerks...

    New team's coach's approach to pitching to slappers

    My girls team is nearly all 9th graders who go dark for Spring except for her, shes only in 8th grade. So she will be playing with a different team within the organization and pitched for the new team last week. My girl gave up 4 hits through 5 innings and all 4 were to slappers (I hate...

    Is this not an illegal pitch??

    It's illegal, if coaching against a pitcher with mechanics like that I'm protesting every pitch. Even if the blue is clueless its still going to get in to the pitchers head.

    Vinci partial relace

    I'll usually get all of the laces out of the glove and then clean and condition the leather, use 2BWax No 1 conditioner on the gloves. Then I'll use Skidmores leather cream on the lace before lacing the glove. Also, I'll use Obenaufs on the inside of the glove as it keeps the inside from...

    How tall are softball players?

    How come the softball teams don't list the players weight the way baseball and football teams do? My 8th grade pitcher is 5-8 and she weighs 138 pounds....or 13 more than She wants

    Title IX

    Wait, so if the baseball teams booster club pays for all of the extras the baseball team gets, it's up to the school to make up for how poorly the softball teams boosters performed? What kind of crap is that?

    How are scholarships typically sliced and divided?

    I don't know about softball as my girl is still in 8th grade. My son's all played or play d1 baseball. Baseball has a larger roster than softball and fewer scholarships than softball. Each of my sons were given partial scholarahips that were onlybpartial for tuition and books. Their dorms...

    Megan Kleist leaving Oregon

    Don't all transfers have to sit out a season and lose a year of eligibility for transferring or is that just in football? Seems the ncaa would open themselves to lawsuits by having different transfer rules for different sports.
