So my DD had been hurt last year with a rhomboid area injury, well she has it again. She got a mri and it was a serratus anterior strain, after resting it for nearly 2 months it’s not fully better.
Does anyone have experience with kids and this injury? What in mechanics can cause it?
My DD has been experiencing pain in her rhomboid, she just finished up 6 months of pt, as well as 3 months of No pitching which helped but it’s not completely gone. Has anyone else’s DD experienced this, what helped it makes me think she is doing something mechanically that is causing it.
This year has been a busy one for my dd, between high school ball and travel. Once hs was over she got maybe a 2 week break and then the summer travel season started, once that summer season wrapped up, there was no break between it and fall, her team played 6 or 7 fall tournaments. Now she’s...
My DD has struggled this summer with shoulder impingement, which is a painful condition due to muscle imbalance in the rotator cuff.
Well her coach said something that irritated me, basically he said we’re lucky he’s not like real travel ball coaches because they would cut a player for being...
Scoring question, this has happened to my DD twice this year, she’s hit a ball to the out field, out fielder fails to make the catch (not scored an error) and the runners at first who have tagged up gets thrown out at second.
Our score keeper scores it as a fielders choice instead of a hit...
Does anyone know the pitch speed progression, that you use to determine where speed faults are? For example walk through should be 105% of mound speed. K’s or motion k’s should be x%?
My DD is a 3rd baseman and she does a great job except with hard hit balls. It takes her a bit to realize the ball is coming toward her so she has a slight delay which in hard hit balls cost her.
Are there any drills I can do with her to teach her or help her with reading the ball off the bat...
Does anyone have experience with speed cords? I am trying to honk of ways to get my dd to explode off the mound faster to help increase her speed as well as pitching speed. I was thinking of using these while she is pitching to give her some resistance while driving off the mound.
We’re new to HS softball this year and already don’t like the coach.
The first thing was trying to find out when open workouts were, he never got back to me and my dd ended up getting the info from a friend. The second is/was he changes times at the last minute, the first time he did this was...
Time to clean out some softball equipment.
I have a pair of ringor molded pitching cleats size 7.5 barely used, probably less then 5 games. $60 shipped.
Ringor turf shoes used but still tons of life left size 7.5. $45 shipped.
Diamond kinetics pitch tracker, used less then 5 times $70 shipped.
My DD is on the smaller side, not height wise but width wise lol. I’ve noticed the bigger pitchers have better BI, is this normal? Parents of the skinnier pitchers how’s your daughters BI? Is it something you had to work hard on?
Anyone have recommendations for comfortable cleats? My DD is always composing about her feet hurting, she is currently using boombah cleats which she likes, just by the end of practice she is complaining about her getting. We’ve tried ringors and don’t like them because they take forever to...
I was watching the pgf all American games on espn, and according to them all the pitchers throw 60+, one going to Oklahoma was throwing 70+.
So that got me thinking, personally the fastest I’ve seen a girl throw was 61, that was a 12u girl and around here in high school most pitchers I’ve seen...
This happened yesterday, runners at 1st and 2nd. Ball hit to second the runner on 2nd was deemed to have interfered with the short, but she still got the ball to second on time to get the runner, and 2nd gets it to first in time to get the batter.
Umpires rule it’s a dead ball after the...
