    Recruiting Out of JUCO

    Hello everyone. My daughter, after having been recruited to a mid level D2, decided that the cost of attending an out of state school was more than she wanted to have on her balance sheet after graduation. As a result she is commuting to and playing for a D3 JUCO. They have a good team but the...

    2010 Ghost

    2020 Ghost sorry for the typo. So I have what I hope is a simple question. Who caved? Did USSSA agree to have ASA compression level bats as legal or did Easton basically eliminate the Blue Ghost and now market one bat that meets USSSA standards? I just went online and the blue ghosts are flying...

    Advice on What to Expect D2 Pitching

    My daughter has committed to a mid level D2 school. They usually do go to the NCAA D2 tournament but the conference competition seems to be on the weaker side. Like any Dad I want her to succeed and I’m fearful that the pitching will be so much better than that which she has seen. I don’t know...

    In State vs Out of State Tuition

    My daughter recently committed to a D2 program. Not a lot of scholarship money but it's a good program and the school fits her academically and I think she will play. It's a state school and we are out of state. Price wise it's reasonable but there is about a 10,000 per year difference between...

    Colorado Fireworks All Star Game

    So my daughter's team is going out to the Colorado Fireworks tournament in a couple weeks. She has been invited to play in an "All Star" game prior to the tournament with a $165 fee attached. The claim is that there will be coaches attending the games (multiple games) and that they choose...

    Videoing Games? I got booted.

    So since the start of fall season I have been videoing and posting my daughter's team's games to YouTube. The players, parents and coaches seem to like it because they can pull good plays off the video and review how they did and maybe what they need to improve on. For those of us who just love...

    Tryouts While Current Season is Still in Progress

    OK first of all let me say: I understand. I really do. You are afraid all the talented players will be gone if you wait till August 1st to have your tryouts. God knows nothing is more important than travel softball and it would simply be devastating if the Evesham Grasshoppers Super Deluxe...

    Pop up Tent with Walls

    We are currently at a tournament and two games in a row a family placed their pop up tent right up against the first base side almost directly behind home plate and put the flap down on the side so anyone sitting to the left of them can't see the right side of the infield. I asked them to please...

    Holding Her Hand in the Parking Lot

    I think back to when I used to go to the grocery store with my daughter and would hold her hand in the parking lot, positioning myself between her and the cars. One day, and I don't know when it happened, we were going in that same grocery store and I realized I wasn't holding her hand anymore...

    August Birthday. Repeat a grade?

    OK I'm not sure if I'm even thinking of this as a possibility but wanted to get opinions anyway. My daughter is a young high school freshman. I probably should have kept her out of school for another year in kindergarten but that is water under the bridge at this point. She is developing into a...

    Travel to Guest Play?

    We are in our second year of travel ball and our season ended here in South Jersey a couple weekends ago. Team is on hiatus until after the holidays and my daughter said last night "I miss Softball". So here's the question. Where can we go to post in a regional forum to see about her guest...

    Metal Cleats

    I tried searching and was only able to find old threads that are probably not up to date with current rules. My 13 year old is a first year 14U third baseman, still growing like a weed and I have to get her new cleats. She is an above average fielder and baserunner, still struggles at the plate...

    A Little Scared for my Daughter

    Hi everyone. First post. My daughter recently made a 14U travel team and I am excited beyond belief (and yes, so is she). She picked up a softball for the first time ever in April 2013 so I am very proud of her. They have her starting at third base and I am fearful that she knows not what she is...
