My DD is a starting P on a 2nd year 12s team. Recently their #1 C left the team, and now trying to train another player to C who has very little if any exp playing C. (Maybe a season of Rec a few years ago) My DD has been pitching 4+ years now, and considered #1 on her team.
Last weekend, the...
Where was that? In Nor Cal there seems to be a lot of sour grapes and teams Who aren’t playing are ratting out the teams who are playing. I think they find out on game changer.
Our team came in first place in the silver bracket. We won 4 games, lost 1 and tied 1 . Not bad for a 1st tournament. The girls wore wrist bands like college players which they thought was fun. The coach called numbers to them on the wrist band, and then they threw a pitch. I have no idea if...
So 12u is when they stat hitting spots? What about the catcher? Will she be prepared to catch in different locations? I’d assume catchers need a lot of help with this too.
The coach has a daughter who pitches in college. I trust he knows what he is talking about, I’m just not sure she will be able to throw pitches someone else tells her to do. I don’t really know if she has that ability yet. I don’t know if she’s ever been told what pitch to throw or if she just...
So the goal is to hit the spoT? Isn’t that the means? What is the end? What is the purpose? Just hitting a spot is too simplistic. You need a reason to hit a particular spot.
Do pitchers tend to get more BB when trying to strike out a batter or trying to get them to hit the ball? Assuming they are not fatigued and doing ok on the mound.
Does a 1st year 12u pitcher have that much control over where the ball goes at the plate? I don’t know. My daughter has become more accurate from a year ago.
My Daughter is first season 12u and was recruited to pitch on a new team, the HC told the parents his strategy was for the pitchers to pitch for weak contact vs. Ks. From what I’ve seen of the defense, I’m not sure that’s such a good idea. They are an A level team but 1st year 12u. I’m...
I’ve always let my dd decide what team she wants to play in as long as she’s happy. While,she’s and I wanted her to move to a higher level team last year as did her pitching coach, she wasn’t ready and wanted to stay in her team. Fast forward to now and she finally decided after seeing much...
