    Speed and Reaction Time

    I think this is the best idea, I guess I will do this just did not want to cut a new cage. I might just bite the bullet and and another 22' section to it as well.

    Thank You, Do you think that I am looking at this the right way to get a similar reaction time when she is in the cage?

    Speed and Reaction Time

    I need some help with some mathmatics. I just recently purchased a 22' batting cage so what I want to find out is how fast do I need to set the pitching machine to get the equivalent of a 40 mph pitch @ 35'. The pitching machine when attached to the cage is about 19' away from the plate. A...

    Not sure about basketball but I guess all you have her do is stand in the paint with her hands up and she would be wide open.

    No comment on the picture??? You wanted proof of her size so I found a picture of her at 8 for you. Now that I showed you her size let me see if I can find a U-tube video of her pitching.

    9 year Old Pitcher

    She has put in alot of work and we try to pick up the ball everyday and throw for at least 30 min. but we try to go an hour when we can. I think she probbaly throws 60% to 70% strikes but there are some days when she is just not feeling it. The good thing about her is I dont have to force her to...

    9 year Old Pitcher

    I have personally seen this girl on several occasions and my daughter has played against her since 6U ball and she has always been rather tall girl for her age. If you look at the USFA website she was on the team that won the 8u national championship last season and now that same team has stayed...

    9 year Old Pitcher

    Her pitching coach actually used radar and clocked her at 43 and I got 43 to 46 from doing the the math by timing from release till it hits the glove and doing the math. I am not saying she can hit that speed everytime but she has got up there. I would say she can hit it maybe 50% of her...
