    No Softball in Illinois this Summer?

    Hoping the “until May 30” means there’s hope after June 1. The “article” I read from a questionable source had a misleading headline.

    Softball IQ ???

    I think like most things some people have an affinity for certain things. Softball IQ is both learned and at the same time is intuitive for some players. My DD and husband would be sitting on the couch and one would throw out a situational question and they’d discuss it. She was interested...

    2020 fielding offers question

    What criteria is best to use when making a decision (or not) on an offer(s)? Coaching staff could change, current academic major choice could change 10 times, social life will change, etc. So much can happen in 3 yrs. SHOULD 2020s make verbal commitments? Asking for a friend:cool:

    Invited to attend Camp

    Actually not long after I posted we worked out a quick visit. Not the best timing with no home game or anything, but we felt we should take advantage of the window we have. I wonder what is going on every day! Thanks for the advice. Staying the course is tricky these days especially with a 2020...

    What to expect?

    Good luck to your daughter. Our girls are in similar situations. 2020 snappers with speed. A unique skill set, lol.

    Invited to attend Camp

    DD, a 2020, was invited to and attended 2 camps at a small D1. At the 2nd camp she was asked to return for an unofficial. Is there a timeline for that visit? The invite was extended right before NCAA season started and right before HS season started. Doesn't seem there's any good time to squeeze...

    Stay to Play

    Anyone else get annoyed by this process. I'd say a majority or teams would like double rooms yet I I'm going to get stuck with kings and pullouts for 2 tournaments. That's like 9 nights. Funny part is I didn't sit around and not reply to the room requests, I did it right away. I just wasn't fast...

    Slugger Complex in Peoria, Illinois

    DD played there DD played there in July of 2016. It was hot not everything was up and running, but there weren't any major problems. Our other daughter has played inside the dome recently and it's a very nice facility too. It's close to a lot of restaurants, hotels and grocery stores and other...

    Diamond9 Showcase - Orlando - this coming weekend - anyone done this before?

    That's where DD is playing. A coach from her dream school (Duke) was there this morning so I'd say 'off site' is Ok!

    Diamond9 Showcase - Orlando - this coming weekend - anyone done this before?

    DDs team is playing there this weekend. First game is this afternoon. Hope it's a good experience and beneficial to the girls. I for one wasn't thrilled with missing a day of school to go.

    Sue Enquist takes on early recruiting...

    Is there a level where coaches are more trustworthy? I guess what I'm asking is a lower profile d1/d2/d3 coach any more likely to honor a verbal than another? Also, can I just say how ridiculous I find it that a 2020 can verbal--essentially writing her future-to a coach/program that can't even...
