Not sure where you went - but if not here, time to bring in the big guns. If there, then you are in good hands I think, and although it is very frustrating and difficult for her (and you) - I think with these injuries, slow and steady wins the race.

There are a number of sports announcers who never played MLB- but are exceptionally knowledgeable about the game and offer insight that is interesting and accessible to the average (or in my case below-average) BB fan. I have not heard JM baseball commentary- so can't speak to her BB knowledge...
My DD is verballed to a high academic D3 school in the northeast. I agree with InsidePitch- my sense from my DD having looked at several of these schools and attended camps- is that they have two concerns- the first and foremost one is- can this student even be admitted to my school- i.e. do...
I think after watching- it is important to know if it is plantar flexion that caused the problem (google image plantar flexion injury and you can see how it could have happened) or eversion (check those pictures too)- My guess after watching is that it is the latter.
I don't think it is very nice or appropriate to put up a video like this of someone else's child. Help is given when it is asked for here- you don't need to troll the internet for someone else's DD to criticize.
I kind of think it's interesting that you are also from NC, what- did she beat...
I think you did a really nice job- but it could be simplified-
Maybe put skills video right there on the face page so they can open it without having to take the step of clicking another link- also on the face page- I'd have some key info like POP time, overhand throw speed and one or two key...
DD has verbally committed to play at a D3 school that is highly competitive academically and also- was her #1 choice. She went to a summer camp at that school between sophomore and junior year- which was her first contact with coach- which she maintained over her junior year. Comments from...
HI! Not a podiatrist or orthopedist but checked to find that there are different types of navicular avulsion fractures- I copied and pasted information here- each of these is caused by a different specific motion of the foot- and while I totally agree with Java that this could be indicative of...
I just want to thank java and RP for taking the time to share their thoughts in such an open and constructive way- not that I get it all! It is nice to see a dialog of contrasting views that does not degenerate into a SNL skit (e.g. Jane Curtin and Dan Ackroyd:))
I think one of the hardest...
I also think there is a big difference between "weak" 12U rec and 16UA TB team- at least I hope so. I think there would be challenges for a good 12UA TB player (unless she was physically very mature) to go to 16UA- where girls are bigger, stronger, and pitching is light years better. I would...
Were these drop balls that broke (in practice) or didn't break (in game)? one thing is for sure though- in the game, she sure is bringing it! If she is not practicing the pitch at that level of intensity (I am inferring this from the degree to which she seems to be transferring energy into her...
Sounds like you have tried many of the things others have suggested and I think sluggers post and following through with consequences are good strategies. I don't know how much of exploration into what is going on in her head that you have done? This is not something I explore at the time of...
