    Hosting a tournament

    My daughters and I are coaching a 10u team. We want to host a tournament. How do we learn how to do this?

    Is this acceptable?

    Cookies in the dugout or on the bench? Really?

    I found this. The only one Im familiar with is University of the Sciences, which has an exceptional program. My granddaughter's current organization has 2 girls who will play ball there this coming year. A lot depends on the major. Haverford College, Division 3, located in Pennsylvania is a top...

    Strategy Question

    Catcher throws to the shortstop who is coming in as she throws, and let's hope runner on 3rd takes off for a play at the plate. Has worked numerous times for me.

    I just went to the site. What I found strange was that they listed the colleges all of their alumni played at. All were D1 or D3. No D2 at all. I wonder why?

    My granddaughter will have her associates when she graduates high school. It's a program for gifted students at her school. We consulted with someone we know who is a D1 assistant BB coach. Her NCAA eligibility will be fine. Im definitely going to look into this camp. You have been so very...

    Who's mistake?

    I am in total agreement. The coach could definitely turned this into a learning experience, especially at this age level.

    Hi Thanks so very much for the wealth of information you provided. My GD will be attending college as a sophomore. She took the practice PSAT given by the school. They believe when she takes the real deal she will be a National Merit Award winner (if I have the term correct). I totally...

    When is the best time of year to buy a bat?

    Nowhere to swing but down. His right foot goes out to early. He's stepping into the ball before he should.

    Who's mistake?

    Ps. I always tell my granddaughter to throw right to the plate. It's up to the catcher to be there. Now, if there are others on base besides the one coming home, this could be a bad idea. If the catcher is not there, or backup, a missed ball could allow more than 1 run to score.

    Who's mistake?

    As someone who played and has coached for over 20 years, I would be seeking a new team. No coach should have "lit up" your daughter. The catcher wasn't positioned correctly. It was not that bad of a throw. Catcher took her eye off of the ball prematurely. Even the most precise throw to the plate...

    When is the best time of year to buy a bat?

    We have always found end of October to Black Friday to be the best time to get a good deal. I highly suggest taking the person you are buying this for so they can get a feel for the bat. Each time I've bought one as a gift, I have had to return it. Now, I bring my granddaughter and have her pick...
