    Maybe It's Me ?

    Well sorry it didn't go so well. As far as batting order never read to much into it. Depending on the team and skill sets. I tend to group my rabbits and hitters 1,2 spots the 6 and the 9. Usually with a fairly fast girl in the nine don't want to clog bases up heading to the top of my order. It...

    Not sure the point of a behind the back bunt

    I've seen this in practice when learning to bunt just as confidence booster for hand eye coordination. My bet would be this was the girls playing around in then dug out and bet her she would t do it.

    To run up the score? That is the question.

    Jmo but run the score past the point they can't return then second string or close to the point. Personally I want my girl to grow and get better if a team can rum it up reinforces the fact they have work to do. Sometimes a bad beating is what they need to fire up so it never happens again.

    Coaching out of control?

    I have found that most coaches with th exception of the few crazies are just passionate about the game. Like any human they make mistakes but most of the time are on point and more than supportive. One a slight different note the girls are hard on themselves especially the really good ones they...

    Parent Coaching from the Stands/Sidelines

    Not sure how to copy and do quotes but I think you took me a bit out of context and that's ok it's a typed forum. We don't coach situational from the stands or tell players what to do mostly just the hitting. We're quiet and most parents just talk to them about that weeks work like I said palms...

    Parent Coaching from the Stands/Sidelines

    I'm not saying coach on every play but sometimes with the younger ones a reminder right before works wonders. Can't tell you how many times that little reminder made a huge difference. I'm not on the sidelines screaming out what she should do on each play. I am reminding about what we worked on...

    Required Player Equipment

    For those that absolutely can't afford set up an equipment fund or do a fund raiser for it.

    Required Player Equipment

    It just drives up the cost on rec league then two weeks in parents go get all the equipment you end up paying for stuff you're going to buy anyway.

    Parent Coaching from the Stands/Sidelines

    I fully understand not doing the constant coaching from th stands. I don't see anything wrong with a little last minute reminder on stuff you may have been working on. As in being on deck and reminding to get the hips thru and palms up/down etc... These little things help "sometimes" the trying...

    Required Player Equipment

    No shared helmet bad as idea. Bats can be a touchy subject but young rec a simple aluminum gets the job done. We have several teams in our comp league that require a face mask not a bad idea. Our team really only uses mask against hard hitting teams and the pitcher always has one. As far as a...

    Ejection Threshhold and Rules

    I guess if you wanted to automate the game you could RF ID the ball, transmitters in each glove, and pressure transducers on the bases. With a few cognext cameras it would take a lot away from the umps. Only problem is lag time on the data. I would hate to see that happen it would take away from...

    Ejection Threshhold and Rules

    Well after reading this I only have my opinion but I think great job to both catch and coach. Way to stand up and ask and question authority this is part of becoming an adult if it didn't seem right say something just because ump, teacher, coach, police officer, etc says something doesn't make...

    Runners on 1st and 3rd

    I may be way off base here but doesn't this mostly depend on the batter? Depending on the base runner speed if the batter is a triple threat then what option can you take other than position and hope for the best. If the batter has the slap, bunt, and control not sure if there is a good way to...

    Coresoftball20 sells bats at amazing prices not sure if he comes close to that price, but great service and it always has the warranty. When it comes to composite bats I wouldn't buy one with out the warranty.

    Practice scheduel what do you think

    I really like JJS post. Keep it fun and keep them occupied. I saw a really cool concept last year with a young rec team. Every time coach called down they'd slap their gloves on the ground and yell back ready. Then they'd be in a grounder position. I liked it no kids playing in the dirt when the...
