    Teaching hitting Carrier/Bustos approach

    She is an infielder 3b/SS, she plays on the same team as my daughter. She's a very good infielder. I don't know anything about throwing mechanics, so I will leave that for you guys to discuss.

    Travel costs for sb now. Flight. Hotel. Car rental....

    So I'm the poor parent on my daughter's "elite" team. There's all kinds of different ways to save money and cut some costs. While the rest of the team stays in high priced hotels I will be at a hotel on the opposite side of the road for half the price. I rarely stay at a hotel the night before a...

    Pitching machine ?

    I bought a lite flite off FB marketplace for $100. For limited space and not wanting to break the bank on a bigger machine it does a really good job.

    Explicit Walk Up Music

    If you sit far enough out behind the outfield fence you won't even hear the walk up songs.

    USSSA points

    I can tell you a team that was proud of their #1 USSSA state ranking showed up at a tournament this weekend and got throttled. It's easy to pick and choose tournaments with low level competition to build your ranking. It was also nice seeing the parents get put in their place this past weekend...

    Saw the top-ranked 2027 player this weekend

    My daughter plays 10u and there are a couple teams they play that will ride one pitcher the majority of the tournament. I don't know about damage to their arms, but one girl now wears a knee brace that she didn't wear in the fall.

    bat grip thickness

    My DD has baby hands and prefers the 0.5. She's a slapper and she says it gives her better bat control.

    Likely on purpose. Catcher hits batter in head.

    3b isn't ready to take a throw in either situation

    Hitting lesson the day before tournament

    My 10yo plays a lot of tournaments that start on Fridays, so I usually try to get her lesson in on Thursdays. My thought is any adjustments are fresh in her mind when the tournament starts.

    The nike pants have a mesh in the back on the lower half of the pants that's supposed to help with cooling

    HS Coach asking my DD slapper to train slappers during games

    She should charge for lessons, make a little side money during the game.

    Too early to worry?

    I've seen plenty of very successful 8u travel teams implode once they got to 10U and kid pitch. The struggles come and the parents can't handle not winning and the whole team falls apart.

    How to stop walk-athon in 10u?

    I don't understand why 10u rec league doesn't do modified kid pitch. It's zero fun for anyone involved to part of a walkathon

    U.S.A./USSSA age chart changes

    I really think you're overthinking this. If the younger girls are good enough to move up to 12u then move them up, if not they should stay in 10u for their benefit.
