    Slap Hitting Help

    Some clips of slap hitting. She’s been learning to slap for a couple months now. What are some improvements that can be made to her form. One thing I’ve noticed is I feel like she starts turning towards first base too soon. She struggles with hitting the ball to the ss side of the field. Could...

    Struggling with Hitting

    She has been having a hard time making contact with the ball and when she does make contact it’s usually been pretty weak. Any advice on what’s wrong with her swing?

    How to efficiently play with 8 players?

    We had a tournament today and our team ran into a bit of an issue. We only had 8 players and one of the missing players was our main pitcher. Since we didn’t have a pitcher we had to put our 1st baseman as our pitcher since she pitches a bit. Then since our catcher was missing we had to put our...

    My DD is a sophomore In college and she still lives with me because I’m a very cool father. However, my coolness is not the point of this post.
