    Bunt Coverage

    No outs. Runners on first and second. Why would you not have 3rd base charge the bunt at 16u and higher?

    USA Elite Select

    My daughters 12u team got a bid to the USA Elite Select World Series in Kansas. How does this tournament rank on the national level and does anyone have previous experience with it? Any info is appreciated.

    Drop/Fastball/Seams

    Trying to help my second year 12u DD get a handle on a couple of pitches but she and I are a little confused. I introduced her to the two seam fastball to get some movement....it was awesome but she can't command the direction. It just goes down and in or away. Still awesome pitch. I owe DFP...

    Boombah Bag Replaced...Thanks Boombah

    Just wanted to say thanks to Boombah for their customer service. DD got a new bag for Christmas which was messed up. A zipper was sewn too close to a seam and wouldn't close properly. Contacted them and sent a picture of the problem. They told me to keep that bag and would send out another...

    Legal NFHS Ball

    My daughter is part of daddy ball!!!

    Model Pitchers....Kinda

    Can we get some pitching coaches **the ones who know IR and drive mechanics** to put up some model pitchers on here by age?...10u, 12u, and 14u. I look at all of these great/advanced model pitchers but comparing them to a younger pitcher as a reference is difficult. I would really like...

    2 Drive mechanics questions

    1. When getting the stride knee up and leg out what happens with the foot? Do you use force to get it down faster or just natural gravity? I've tried the motion myself and using force seems to stop heal strike and make the stride faster. 2. Is there some adduction in the legs (mainly pulling of...

    Suggestions on mechanics for 10u pitcher

    We started with an HE coach but left after I found this sites info on IR. I'm not sure that she is really getting the whip since we started working on the drive. I have mechanical concerns but I would like input from the pitching gurus on this site. Thanks Jason http://youtu.be/7QBMVL6h-M8
