    HS..School of Hard Knocks

    My daughter is a Junior this year but her Freshman year the same thing happened, made varsity as a catcher but didn't play much due to a senior so the coach finally let her go back to JV and she did great, it was really good for her confidence also and brought her back up for the end of the...

    How to decide earlier to swing or not?

    I agree with you here, but she doesn't hit it very hard to the opposite side, now up the middle that's where I see power.

    How to decide earlier to swing or not?

    First off great video Eric F I will show her that video, makes sense to me. Mr. T that is something I just read about and I need to check on when she loads up to hit, I'm curious about that, I happened to read another thread just recently posted about his same topic and I see where a lot of...

    How to decide earlier to swing or not?

    My 17yo dd averages about 1-2 hits per game this year but she really lets the ball get in on her before she decides to swing, so basically she is swinging late and not getting good extension or power. Is anything I can do to help her with deciding earlier when to swing? I have a tee with a net...

    Outfield practice in the winter?

    Wow this turned into a great thread and has given me a lot of things to work on this winter for my daughter, footwork is something that definitely needed as she was converted from a catcher to a OF last season, she did great and was voted all conference but you could tell there needs some work...

    Slapper bat size

    This is basically my 16yo DD, she is dominant R handed but has always hit from the left, very fast to first and was a catcher with a very strong arm due to all her years of competition swimming to give her that arm strength. Last year her Sophomore year her coach converted her from Catcher to...

    Faster: The need for speed!

    For explosiveness definitely do hill work as stated above, also use box jumps these work the legs for explosivness.

    What does your DD/Player do to improve?

    She has played 12u and 14u TB, but next weekend is her first 16u TB tournament so we will see how she performs during better competition. I will say when she gets on the mound and is in her groove she does very well by hitting spots. She pitched a varsity game at the end of the season...

    What does your DD/Player do to improve?

    These are great replies, this is the stuff I want her to hear and understand. She says she wants to pitch and really enjoys it, plus she would love to play past HS. We try to explain to her that it does take practice on your own just not pitching in a game or one day a week with your pitching...
