    Pitching with Confidence

    Without knowing more about the situation, it's difficult to make suggestions. There are many underlying circumstances that could lead to mental issues. I'm just going to take a guess here. Can I assume since she's looking for perfection, she's achieved it in the past against the weaker...

    Swing Sequence

    Made a great investment in a 60 FPS video camera. I filmed my DD's swing and she does quite a few things well, especially off the tee, but she definately gets her back elbow way in front of her hands. I can get her to the proper position in a slow motion swing, but as soon as we get to full...

    Being "Aggressive" in the box

    I've been following the posts on this forum for some time now and have gained quite a bit of knowledge that I incorporate into my own coaching strategies. I think the "Aggressive" message needs to be conveyed cautiously. There is a time and a place, but to preach this to a team would be a...
