    NECC DVD

    I am looking for a copy of the esteemed New England Catcher Camp (2006) instructional DVD with updated throwing techniques. Does anyone have one they are interested in parting with? NECC is no longer offering their DVD on their website, and the e-book that they have been promoting hasn't been...

    Tanner 12

    It looks like she's athletic and aggressive! This reminds me of a couple of players I coach. She made contact there, but her bat path limits her hitting. It looks like she's swinging around her body. I see DBSF. You didn't ask about the lower half, but I think learning to coil as the player...

    Loading Vertically

    Any chance you have clips of being dragged around by hips rotating?" For me, it would be helpful to see a comparison of HL or ideal vs "there's lots of work to do."

    How do you differentiate between load and gather?

    Loading Vertically

    I get the posture is vertical here with Aaron and he seems to be using his glutes in the move-out as demoed in the golf video (rear posting-up like in basketball) you uploaded. Due to the pitch location being up in the zone, he can maintain that position and has very little shoulder tilt. Do...

    So the Ferris Wheel that others teach is what you would categorize as dumping, correct?

    Loading Vertically

    I am trying to get a feel of what some define as loading vertically. WW posted in another thread (https://www.discussfastpitch.com/threads/where-do-we-start-updated-improvement.40667/post-605864) that " op, think in terms of getting a load vertically. Not back and forth or by rotation. That...

    Where do we start? Still working

    I know the golf clip is a GIF, but are you aware if there is audio too? I have more questions but don't want to highjack the thread. Perhaps I'll start another thread. Thanks.

    Where do we start? Still working

    WW-I get what you are saying about avoiding loading in the transverse plane (ABAF movement), but what do you mean about " a load vertically"? What is the feel of loading vertically?

    Some great matchups this weekend!

    I took am looking forward to UCLA vs Oregon. The season is young and the stats thus far don't really mean much, but it's interesting that UCLA is 9th in the country in batting average at .385 and Oregon is 9th in the country in E.R.A. at .83. Somethings gotta give. I am also interested in...

    A Different Kind Of Coach

    I came across this thread and wanted to learn more about Frosty. Unfortunately, the link no longer works. Thankfully, I was able to find the article. It was a great read on a special man. I created a PDF for anyone who wasn't able to read it while the link was still valid. Thank you, LB.

    Lower body help

    Watch this video by Java. The pushback drill will definitely add lower body power.

    Lower body help

    This is a great thread. Lengthy, but well worth the study. https://www.discussfastpitch.com/threads/drive-mechanics.18135/

    Coiling?

    WW, would you post the Bregman drill (video) you are referring to?

    By an extended arm, I mean barring out the arm of the bottom hand as part of the stretch.

    Dante Bichette

    TDS, how would you define " a leveraged position "? Does that include anterior tilt and an extended arm from the bottom hand?
