    This is my daughters softball team. The team ordered the uniforms last year from Sports 55 in Maryland. Many, many teams have been scammed by this company. In Florida alone ABC action news did a story on our team and 2 baseball teams. After the story aired several more teams have come...

    Illegal pitch question

    So our batter is in the box and calls time and steps out. The pitcher goes through her motion but does not release the ball. What is the ruling on this? This was an ISA tournament.

    2 tournaments ago in the last 2 innings of a win or go home game with 2 outs each time the bottom of the line up came up and got on base and started the rally.

    Our war veterans and softball - nice article

    We went to the game on Saturday. It was an amazing, inspiring game. They made some plays that were pretty amazing. To see someone with only one hand or missing an entire arm getting some pretty terrific base hits was amazing. They actually beat the FCA allstars.

    Help from pitchers parents

    She was just trying to prove the correlation between the larger ball and the loss of speed. Wouldn't the loss in speed be about the same no matter which gun you used? She just thought it was a fun idea for a science project.

    Elite Travel Team and Elite Travel Price

    When you speak of fees are the fees just to have the chance to play on that team and pay for instruction? Do those fees include the cost of tournaments? I know that the teams my daughter has played on you just pay for the uniforms and the costs of tournaments.
