    18u talking to coach

    If the players is not responding positively to what the coach is doing, isn't it the coach's job to do what is bext for the player. Not all athletes perform better by being berated all the time. Especially athletes today. They need praise and they need it often. JMO. Old style coaches are done...

    LoL. Now that is an experienced 8U team. Those Squirrels understand all the concepts of the game. They can even go to the snack stand and order all by themselves.

    Elite, Gold, etc

    LOL. I love the adds for these teams when they are looking for players. For example: We are looking for an experienced 8u player. LOL That just cracks me up. It means that they either don't want to coach or they simply don't have a clue. Experienced 8u player give me a break. I think...

    Elite, Gold, etc

    Maybe we should all require the names to just include the coach's last name. This way they can be held accountable for their terrible coaching skills and techniques.

    Does Size Matter (org size)?

    The travel is crazy. I get that coaches from Ohio State, Georgia, Florida, Florida State etc.. might be watching a game. But can any of the players on your team compete at that level. I would like to see a team that practices together does scrimmages and then attends college camps throughout...

    Top of the 7th. Score tied. Runners on 1st and 3rd. No one out. You're the home team coach.

    Depending on my pitcher. I give her two chances to throw a high fast ball. SHoulder pit level. Trying to get the batter to pop up the bunt. If I didn't get the batter to take the bait or pop it up. I would intentionally walk the batter if I didn't get a strike or two. If I didn't get any strikes...

    DEfense help

    Tell her to count the hops until the ball goes into her glove. This will clear her mind to what is causing her to shy away from the ball. Great drill for athletes that are going through a mental block or thinking to much or teling themselves "Don't miss it Don't miss.

    That's silly. There are underhand plays all over the field. When you explained the play I was thinking of a glove flip from the 2nd Baseman. We practice flips and glove flips all the time. we also have fun at practice with behind the back plays. I can't wait till someone takes a risk and...
