    "I heard it pop".....

    The most dreaded words a parent can hear I think. Well my DD said it to me last night. She was doing popup slides at the HS softball camp and put her hand down. We are 95% sure she tore her ligament in her thumb. (my wife tore the same one a couple years ago). Is that the most dreaded words to...

    Funny Plays

    I want to hear some funny plays that you have pulled or tried to pull...... did they work? This weekend we were playing a 14u B tourney and the game is tied 4-4 with 1 out and time starting to get low. We are guest and I have runners on first and third. My DD is on 1st and she is by far the...

    Game Winner - Champions

    To set the scene: First game of Bracket play after a undefeated pool play. Rough game for our girls, the other teams pitching is very slow and had been jacking with the girls timing all game. So in the last inning the "bad guys" take a 4 run lead on us after some errors and mistakes. My DD is...

    General Observations for the weekend

    If you are keeping score, please know what a DP/Flex looks like on the Line-up card. We had a score keeper and the opposing coach stop down the game for 5 mins while we (myself and the ump) explained that there is no tenth batter...... that's the pitcher. If your player gets hit by the batted...

    Easton / Rawlings Returns

    Anyone have an idea on how long warranty returns are taking currently? My DD finally broke her Ghost Advanced last night and we have games soon. She is already pissed cause that bat was spitting fire.

    Left Handed Catcher

    So we hardly see any left handed catchers and I was just watching a video about how there are no real reasons for it..... So what are reasons for NOT having a lefty catch?

    I made my 1st base DD watch over and over......

    This is just smart and straight hustle!

    Questionable Calls This Weekend

    Coaching second year 12u team and there was all sorts of questionable or just flat out stupid calls. Ball hit to SS with a runner on 2nd. Short stop breaks down to field the ball and the runner plows through her. Ump signals obstruction.... but doesn't call deadball..... I call time after the...

    Scoliosis

    I wonder if anyone else has dealt with this? My daughter is 11. She has always been a good player (elite hitter, average fielder) over the last year we have discovered that she has sever scoliosis. (80 degrees for those in the know) this herb effected her hitting but made throwing angles weird...

    Softballers playing Baseball

    Both my kids play ball but my 10yr old DD is way more into it than my 11yr old son. (though he is a good player) Well DD's tourney got canceled on friday and my son's team, who I coach, was missing a couple players. "well hell I'll just suit up a couple softball players". I got my DD on 3rd and...

    Calling Plays via Numbers

    There are a ton of different ways to call plays. Having each girl with a wrist bands, I'm not really a fan of...but I understand it. Yelling out your numbers is not the best idea. If you are going to us a number system signal in your numbers. It took me three batters last night to know what the...

    Right in the goods!

    Last night was coaching and being lazy sitting on a bucket warming up our pitcher.....I don't miss many balls.....but last night I got one bounce on me and catch me just enough to have hot flashes....going back to squatting.

    Weird Dead Ball Question

    So I've play ball my whole life but never seen this before. Runners on 2nd and 3rd. 1 out. Pitch is delivered and swung at and missed. The ball hits the catchers leg and without touching anyone rolls into the dugout. No runners advance during the time, for some reason they all returned to...

    Rec Coach Rant

    My DD (10u) had a heck of a season this year in rec (She plays TB which I am one of the coaches for) and as the season ended it was pretty obvious she was top 2 or arguably 3rd best overall player on the team. Best hitter by far. So coach asks parents to vote for All Stars. This weekend I get...

    Big organization is interested

    I co-coach (I do on field and the other guy does all the other stuff and a little on field) a 10u TB team and we have some solid players. The infield especially is very good but we still haven't played many tourneys together, so we are still working out the kinks. A big organization reached out...

    TB Co-coaches vs each other

    So myself and my Asst TB coach both coach rec teams in our league (10u). Well we played each other last night which makes it a lot of fun since both of us have 3 girls from the TB. My daughter got up to bat last night and I see him start laughing. She is a power lefty and pulls the ball hard and...

    First Swing of the first Tourney of the year.

    New here but been lurking. So my DD has played in some 8u Rec Tourneys before, but was stuck in the outfield and batting last. But over the past year (she is still 9) she has made a bunch of headway. Played in her first 10u tourney this weekend and batted 4 hole and played third all weekend. (I...
