    Bat size?

    Okay . I usually go to dbat or do tee work . It isn't weight that bothers me . It just feels like the length is bothering me on inside pitches .

    Bat size?

    So I normally use a 33inch -11 Easton . At the batting cages it got a dent in it and I honestly feel like it was a bit too long for me . I'm getting a new one so I'm wanting to see if anyone on here thinks a 32 would be better or any suggestions. 16u/18u. 5'6/ 5'7 . Thanks in advance.

    Thoughts on How a player should decide which position would suit her best?

    I've tried outfield with a slowpitch team and I'm bad at it . Not sure what to call it but I think its depth perspective. Lots of people on the team thought I would be good since I 'React like a outfielder ' they found out quick I couldn't judge the ball when it is that high. Might be something...

    Thoughts on How a player should decide which position would suit her best?

    Sorry I forgot . I'm 16 so it would be 18u or 16u. I'm not on the smaller side as far as size goes so that's why I was thinking 1st .

    Anyone have any advice for a player trying to decide what position to play? I know it would have to be infield. I'm just not sure which position would suit me best so I was wanting to see if anyone on here has any advice on it. 5'6-5'7 Average or possibly above average arm. Not afraid of the...

    16u catcher. Needing help with stance . Questions about catching stance .

    The pressure starts when I get in a receiving position . It doesn't hurt when I get up and throw . It gets pressure from waiting on the pitch . My left knee doesn't have the problem at all. As soon as I move it stops hurting. My right knee is also hard to get even with the left . When its even...

    16u catcher. Needing help with stance . Questions about catching stance .

    Okay . I have a question . Does it matter how low your torso gets compared to the knee height? Like I've seen catchers low where their butt is almost touching the ground .

    16u catcher. Needing help with stance . Questions about catching stance .

    Thats exactly what I mean . Both feet all the way down . Almost Like in the picture from me in red . Flat footed basically. The stance from the red is better then the other ones I tried but still causes a bit too much weight owards my right knee . Thats why I wanted to know about the one knee...

    16u catcher. Needing help with stance . Questions about catching stance .

    Okay . I agree about not seeing many instructions about it . Im just looking into it since the normal catchers stance causes slightly too much pressure for my right knee .

    Hi I started practicing catching at the beginning of the year . I took a moderate knee injury in February. After a few months I started practicing again . A person on here told me to keep my feet down on the ground completely to stay balanced . So I've attached pictures from beginning to...

    16u beginner learning to bat update .

    Thank you . My motivation has dropped . Every day I give it everything . What I meant about my throwing was when I would try to throw with more speed and force my muscle on my arm would start hurting bad but I think I solved it by changing my form when throwing and taking the two steps before...

    16u beginner learning to bat update .

    Thank you. Run Speed and throwing is my major problems I think . I can throw but if I throw far a few times I can't throw much more so maybe strengthening muscle.
