    Need help with DD's swing

    Here is an update...She started with a new hitting coach a couple of weeks ago and has been working hard on her swing during this short offseason. http://youtu.be/4W77uqiPBjw

    I see that now too...symptom of the same problem.

    Need help with DD's swing

    I see it...thanks for putting that together. What do you do to have her fix it?...do you just have to show her and then have her actively focus on that piece of it during tee work (very slow swings at first I would assume) until she can do it naturally enough to move to front toss or the machine?

    Need help with DD's swing

    OK...So how do we fix it?

    Need help with DD's swing

    She actually seems to be under everything. I don't have any recent live pitching videos (I will take some) but I think she dips more against live pitching...or maybe because she is out in front she is dipping her back shoulder to hold herself back. She is also swinging and missing more than she...

    Need help with DD's swing

    Yes...she is 14U. I will look at those ULL hitters. And she does launch front toss but against live pitching her timing usually seems to be off (mostly out in front).

    Need help with DD's swing

    DD used to be successful hitter despite her swing being a work in progress but this year she has really struggled (below .275 against decent pitching) and is starting to get down on herself. Here are 3 clips...Low Tee, High Tee, and Pitching Machine. Is there anything she can do in the near...

    Odd play...thought the ruling was wrong even though it was to our benefit

    Runner on first less than 2 outs. One hopper to the first baseman and the runner on first goes back to the first base bag bag. 1B steps on the bag and then tags the runner (who is standing on first) and the umpire rules it a double play. Was it the right call? Also, another one from this past...

    Crazy Softball Mom

    This past summer the coach from one of the teams my LL All-Star team played (before our DQ debacle ;) ) is notorious for getting out of hand when things don't go her way. The crowd and players from the other game (which ended first) came to watch pretty much all rooting for us. When the game was...

    Xeno Survival Rate

    Especially if you can get a warranty.

    Who is in Favor of....

    I always wondered why they didn't just make the age date September 1st since it would synch well with School levels (since most schools have a Sept 1 cutoff date now) and the change of the softball seasons.

    looking for bats advice needed

    My DD had a MV-3 that broke at the handle after 8 months. Miken sent an Intensit-E as a replacement that just sits in her bag. She also has a freak that she thought was OK if you found the sweet spot but her main bat is a 2011 Xeno which she loves. I was just about to pull the trigger on a CF5...

    Little League Rule Questions...All-Stars

    My issue wasn't so much the refusal to reschedule. I just think that was the right thing to do especially given the circumstances. The decision to DQ rather than forfeit despite the fact that forfeiture had been the harshest remedy in every similar example is what I have a problem with. That was...

    Little League Rule Questions...All-Stars

    And in our case they knew of the conflict months ahead of time and tried to set the schedule around it. When rain screwed things up they would not push the games 2 days despite both teams remaining begging them to do so. I figured worst case is that they would double forfeit and we would win the...

    Little League Rule Questions...All-Stars

    Actually neither team showed up and they disqualified both with is important because if it was a double forfeit then my team would have been district champion but witht he double DQ they gave it to the already eliminated 3rd place team (who refused to help keep things on schedule during the week).

    Little League Rule Questions...All-Stars

    Our big mistake was being honest about the whole thing and thinking our district would be reasonable. Turns out they were not even honest when they gave the "facts" to the little league tournament committee.

    Little League Rule Questions...All-Stars

    The answer ended up being that our district convinced little league for the first time in their history to disqualify a team (every other time the game was rescheduled or the team was given a forfeit) for being unable to field 9 players. Until now disqualification had only been used in cases of...
