    Practice questions

    Practice Plan Question

    Best virtual pitching coach?

    It just came out about a month back. I agree with the HLT being the gold standard, I assume the pitching book is just as good. She is 12 and has been pitching for 3 years. She needs the most work currently on posture and her feet. Needs to get to a more natural motion. Sent from my moto g...

    Team pitching coach or individual?

    Thank you, i know the one has been pitching for 3 years and had an instructor but unfortunately has moved of the area so she is "between" instructors, I haven't asked the other 2 pitchers yet but wanted to have a plan or idea of what i want to do before I talk to them

    Team pitching coach or individual?

    I have been asked to help coach a second year 12U travel team for next season. I'd like to hear people's thoughts or experiences on hiring one pitching instructor and having weekly small group sessions for the 2-3 team pitchers versus having each individual pitcher responsible for finding...

    Trying out for a new team

    @tamss13 - I agree 100%. She wants to see what's out there so that's what we're doing. I told her if she makes a team but she's not feeling it, we say no thanks and go home. It stressful, hard to wait until Monday 🤣. But I know it will be perfectly clear

    Trying out for a new team

    Thank you for the responses. I agree with all of the replies. I think part of the problem is my daughter is more competitve than most of the team. She wants to be a great player personally, plus win games. She's young, but has dreams of playing college ball. As a parent I need to put her in...
