    Do I make the choice for my player?

    We were in the same boat this year. The kid at first will for sure say they want to play with their friends. Which my daughter did as well. Then after a couple of days she realized the competitor in her and decided to go with the new team. Both teams have very good coaching but the new team has...

    When do the 2021 Bats Come Out?

    Was just wondering when the 2021 stuff comes out? I usually buy the previous years stuff that places are then trying to get rid of. Usually top end stuff drops like $100-150.

    Help understanding the mentality of 10/12u tryouts

    I don’t agree on the I don’t agree with the different stages of physical development. I can tell the girls that have the building blocks to work with and who has developed the fundamentals needed to be an above average player. Sure size helps but if they don’t have the proper skill development...

    Trying out for a new team

    We went through this same thing a month ago. You have to do what you think is best for your daughter. Sure some people might be upset at first but they will understand if you are going to a better more competitive situation. Hell in the end they will be happy for you. Too many parents are just...

    Please Help

    You would think so it was really odd. There were an odd number of teams so pool play got screwed up and we didn’t end up playing a complete round robin in pool play. I thought it was crazy that the home team, us would ever bat in this situation but I had parents and other coaches saying we...

    So who has started playing again?

    So Michigan lifted the stay home and is allowing gatherings up to 100. Also allowing games to begin June 8th. It was odd that it said participants must keep 6 feet social distancing. Has anyone else had this in their rules and how does this work?

    That is so disappointing, especially when we now know that transmission of this virus doesn’t happen through touching surfaces.

    Any input on daughters swing

    These are all very, very helpful. So I’m trying to put it all together. She needs to have a little more pull back in her right elbow, which should cause that front plant foot to get down sooner? Which should allow the lower body to release first and bring the arms through right behind it?

    Any input on daughters swing

    She tends to hit everything off the tee straightaway. Does bat drag keep her from getting the bat head out front and pulling it?

    3 10u Students - Feedback Appreciated

    I’ve bedn Ive been trying to get my daughter to shift her weight like these girls. Are there any drills or suggestions you have to get her to load like that and power through the ball like them?
