    Hello From Canada!

    Welcome fellow canuck.

    Live streaming

    We've used Iphone12, Larix Broadcaster app to use the Iphones UW camera and stream to Restream (free), where we have Facebook, Youtube, and Twitch channels setup. People can watch on platform they choose. We find Twitch to be the better user experience. Rob

    Best action camera

    We are using an old Samsung Galaxy S5 for recording, Iphone 12 for streaming. The cameras on the Galasy Sx phones are really good. I've done better with those than the cheaper (less than $100) action cameras. Plus the Samsung has replaceable microSD cards capability. Takes a 128 GB card...

    AthletesGoLive thread for users to help each other and commiserate

    Was also using Larix to point the feed, and to be able to use the ultra wide camera on the Iphone 12.

    AthletesGoLive thread for users to help each other and commiserate

    RE Youtube streaming I don't have a Mevo, but accomplished much the same using Restream and an Iphone. Pointed my feed to Restream, and they send it to Youtube, Facebook. Twitch, and Persicope (to be discontinued, replaced by Twitter). I tested these four simultaneously, worked fine.

    Looking for another set of eyes - 16u Swing Analysis

    It's mid-season, tough time to work on changes. But, my DD had bat drag like this. I agree with the opinions on tipping/straightening the bat before launch. Just having the bat in the different position, and not behind her, will do wonders for everything else. Plan to tackle the bigger...

    Whats wrong with the swing?

    by no means an expert, and I'm not someone who would suggest big changes, but i'm not seeing much coil. i think it's because she starts too late. start earlier in the windup, with a slow move, then fire.

    WOULD LIKE TO WATCH SOME GAMES

    Were still completely shutdown here in Canada, border still closed etc. Been following the Ohio Outlaws 05 Leggins team on Youtube. They live stream their games and have past games on their channel.

    New Member...Toronto Canada

    We're based in Ontario. I agree with you Northern Dad. We've had PWSA meetings and the return to play protocols pretty much eliminate all tournaments this year, it's just too much to handle for any host. Two teams, one park, exhibition double headers is about the best we can hope for/manage.

    Best softball story

    We were playing a big rival in a semi final for a major championship. In our pre-game scrum, once it was known we were home, the girls were chatting and came up with an idea designed to impress and be "real pros". To start off on the right foot kind of thing. They were going to line up in the...

    Tournaments have Started -- Seeing any Broken Bats?

    We start play in May, but it doesn't really warm up until June. We use old bats for the month of May. No way any DD of mine is wasting a top level(cost) bat at +10 C degree weather.

    Walk Up Song? What is yours?

    My DD's current choice is Blitzkrieg Bop by The Ramones. Just to get to the "Oi, Oh, Let's go" part for her teammates to yell.

    Welcome Nick. We're located west of the GTA, playing U16 Tier 1. There are some others here as well.

    I totally agree. Keeps the hands close to the body as well. I think it's a great swing...

    I totally agree. Keeps the hands close to the body as well. I think it's a great swing approach. Thanks.

    A big welcome from Canada. I've got three daughters playing. We've been working on using the lower body more, with the bat resting on their trapezius as long as possible. Videos I found of your swing are very helpful to get their buy in :) Take care. Rob

    Tournament Food Question

    Walking Tacos are popular here. Meat is made up front and serve until you're out of it.

    Went from a 29/16 to a 31/19 this fall and now DD is striking out more often

    Exactly what I meant, According to the bat weight database on this forum, that Xeno is overweight at almost 22 oz. Xeno 31/20 (2015)..................AW 21.8 - 21.9 oz So, really a 6 oz. difference, iF your old bat was at the correct weight.

    Went from a 29/16 to a 31/19 this fall and now DD is striking out more often

    Another point to consider is finding a bat she likes, or at least she says feels great. Different weighting and construction, even at the same length, can lead to very different feel (and sound). I've bought a lot of bats over recent years. All of my daughters are using bats that were not...
