    First Collegiate Home Run and Back Story

    Congrats to your DD!! I absolutely understand your joy and your DD's, kicking that monkey off her back after it's been hanging on and getting heavier with every at bat is huge! When you know they can do it, when they continue with the process and put in the work it's so rewarding to see it pay...

    All-Star Paige Halstead gear

    Glad to hear they upgraded the straps and the Chest Protector. DD got a set a couple years ago and did not like the CP.

    The Spring Games '24

    Florida has been good to us so far, decent weather overall (slight lightning delays on Monday) so far and improving. Playing well and getting stronger. Day off today and hoping to avoid the crowds.

    College Roster Sizes, sorry some of you don't get to go with us~

    Do any DIII teams pay for Championship rings for their players? Ours doesn't.

    Rude Parents

    Yep, we've got one in our conference like that (and in many ways seemed to stem from the Admin/Coach/etc.) and when some of the students/athletes from that school show they definitely get carried away with the obnoxious, rude comments and behavior. The vast majority of schools we've played at...

    That is NOT how I wrote it! Rear? is rear such a bad word? smh

    Rude Parents

    Some folks just plain need their rear kicked. They can't be reasoned with in any other manner and somehow they have escaped an rear whooping so far. So sick of people not taking corrective action. I know it may not be popular but we need to self police others...tar and feathers, kick 'em out of...

    Ah, I thought you were talking about the ballpark, I've only ever found the beer cart there!

    The Spring Games '24

    Good recap, best of luck with the rest of the season. Are they serving Bloody's at Legends Field? The Yuengling's there are always welcome! Weather has been off and on out here...hoping for solid FL sunshine while we're there! Gearing up to head down that way this coming weekend. Looking...

    Hoping for good weather, good fields and plenty of umps at Legends and Hancock between 3/17-21

    Thanks DFP Pitching Posters

    I'm also in the same boat with my twins having been in that HS Class of 2020. We also got started on here about the same time as you and for all the same reasons with one DD pitching and the other catching. Seniors in College now and still going strong but the end is coming up fast (although...

    Coolest outfield sunglasses?

    We got a fantastic deal a couple years ago on some Oakley Radars (I think we went with the Pitch but it might have been Radar), even got some extra lenses for different conditions. This was after they (my DD's) had proven themselves able to take care of stuff. Starting their 3rd season with...

    Glove help - College outfielder

    Sorry to hear about your kid getting ripped off down there...I love that town and wouldn't have expected it. I like AD's glove suggestion (he's been spot on with recommendations for us before). Tell that kid of your's to keep swinging that bat, she's been on fire!

    Becoming a pitcher only?

    I say let them hit...the number of years they get to play the game is very short. If they can hit, have speed and athleticism and know how to compete...let them play the game. I get that not every kid wants that or can do it. Sure there's a risk of injury (we've experienced it) but as Vertigo...

    Guess I'll start an off-topic thread?

    Nice rigs Eric...good to hear from you again! My time as a SB Dad is winding down fast and I'm hoping that means more time out on the dirt for me. My KTM's are calling me!

    How to tell a high school coach that she can't overuse my pitcher

    i'll also throw it into the mix that some AD's just don't give a crap about softball and their sole criteria seems to be get someone in the Coaching job and hope no one complains. With their head buried so deep in the sand they avoid this conflict at all costs. When we as parents can easily...

    How to tell a high school coach that she can't overuse my pitcher

    This Coach is an Ahole and you knew it last Fall. Your PC told you to be prepared to pull her and that view was reinforced by many on here. Coaches like this should not be allowed to continue their mental abuse with young athletes. Good luck - how you handle it from here can get interesting...
