    Fastest 20 for age group

    Here Sluggermama. Here are results for Pennsbury this past year. https://nfca.org/web_docs/campdocs/Pennsbury2015AnalyticsReport.pdf They were timed using a stop watch. (It appeared they were using young laypeople to record the results) In 2014 they used a laser timer and as I...

    Fastest 20 for age group

    Excellent! She will get faster. I agree with the jump around age 14. At 15, DD ran a laser timed 2.68 20 yd dash ................. fastest time at a very large recruiting clinic. (highest vertical and best agility score as well). DD got little to no looks based on this. Most of...

    DD Verbaled

    She chose the school for several reasons. 1. She loves the coach. 2. She loves the players. 3. Not too far from home. 3. Awesome education. 4. I think in her mind she feels she worked this hard, loves challenges and is excited about playing D1 ball. In that order, I believe...

    DD Verbaled

    It has been a long ride but hard work has paid off. Darn proud of her. Not that it matters much but she will be playing D1 ball. As a parent, I was originally hoping for her to stay at the D2 level but the commitment was not that much different. The education she will get is much better at...

    Have you Considered a Chiropractor for your DD?

    You should typically see relief within 2-4 weeks of care (depending on the severity)....often times much sooner. Be wary of any Chiropractor that has a very lengthy plan of care to fix your problem. Some will want to sign you up for a year or more. This will likely benefit them more than you...

    What's a good home-to-first time? Home-to-home?

    Pennsbury times last year for comparison. 2.68 Fastest 20. Laser timed. https://nfca.org/index.php/recruiting-camps/2014-recruiting-camp-results/5948-pennsbury-grip-agility-speed-velocity

    Who went to Pennsbury and How did it go?

    5'4, 120 pounds. 10th grader (now 11th I guess) I knew she was a fast runner, and the agility test didn't totally surprise me, but yes, the vertical did surprise me. She is a heck of a base runner. I guess I am just wondering if this was all for bragging rights? or if coaches really do see...

    Who went to Pennsbury and How did it go?

    Mine surprised me. #1 in speed, agility and vertical. But a weakling. I think I am going to switch her to track!

    Who went to Pennsbury and How did it go?

    Does anyone know when did/will the coaches get the camper results? In other words, did they get the results before game times on Saturday?

    Xeno durability

    Thanks. Then that is the next step.

    DD getting ready for the new year, UPDATE. Hip bump.

    When this was first posted, the main problem was her lack of any "hip bump". She was then letting her rear knee get back too far. Is she getting there with hip bump? Is she separating too much? Left arm is getting straight on her. I will say this. For the first time ever, she poked the...

    DD getting ready for the new year

    Hip bump: I just showed her this thread, and she took it from there. This is her first attempt. I don't like how much her upper body is gliding backwards and right knee not staying inside the front foot. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/tLyo89Rpbac"...

    DD getting ready for the new year

    At 5'4, 110....if she hits the wall, we will both be thrilled. She is a fast learner so I hope to re-post soon. This is great stuff. Dad couldn't convince her that her stance was too wide so maybe now she will listen. The clip is short, as I cut off her separation of her hands early in her...

    DD getting ready for the new year

    I agree she needs these changes, and we will work on it. I just get nervous changing the swing of a .500 hitter that struck out in 4 out of 148 plate appearances last year. I am hoping if we can fix these problems, it gives her more power. That is one of her goals in this game and why I...

    14U How much do you coach from the bench..........

    while the kids are on the field? (offense and defense) Are you moving your defensive players into different positions with every batter? Are you telling them where to make the play? Are you yelling to them while a ball is in the air at whose ball it is? Do you tell them where to stand in the...
