My friend's daughter verbally committed as a junior to a DII school.
She was told by a third party (not the school) that she can no longer have any contact with any
other potential college softball coaches. They cannot contact her nor she contact them.
He was adamant that its a written rule...
My daughter is 15 yo and plays softball and volleyball.
She is 5' 6" 160 lbs.
This past November she felt pain in her lower back after doing strength and conditioning exercises
When she bends over or sits it hurts..... Dull pain in one spot.

We live in Massachusetts. My DD has been pitching for 2 years.
She pitched on a mediocre travel team last year as a 2nd year twelve
Played middle school ball as a 7th grader but did not pitch.
Currently has been working real hard pitching three times/week and
having a lesson once/week.

Opinions please....

My 12 yo typically pitches 50ish was throwing 42-44 her last game. She said it was because

In six innings what is the average amount of strikes thown and walks given?
Thanks,
My seventh grader has been pitching travel ball for the past two years. She made the middle school team and was one of two pitchers that were brought up to pitch with the eight graders. She is now struggling when a big, strong batter gets up as she is afraid they are going to hit it straight...
My 12 yo DD was recently told at her annual checkup that she will probably only grow to be 5'7" at best.
She is now bothered that she will not be tall enough to be the pitcher she would like to be. Would love
to show her success stories from non 6' tall pitchers.
My DD is currently playing on two 12u teams. One in NH, one in MA.
Both coaches are planning on ASA, Pony, NSA tournaments.
I was told it won't be a problem as rosters are submitted on a tournament
by tournament basis and as long as she's not listed on two rosters for the
same tournament...
