    When to begin and post about fall tryouts?

    From what I've seen here in Central California, tryouts for Fall Ball usually occur during the final two weekends in August. Then they start playing ball as soon as September rolls in.

    Rec Program - Comparisons

    Hi everyone! I thought I would start a thread about comparisons from one rec program to the next and maybe add some comments about what you like and don't like about your particular program. I'm looking for a variety of information so that I maybe can pick up a few new ideas offer them to the...

    All White Catching Gear?

    Hey Everyone! I was hoping if any body on these boards can help me find a females fastpitch catcher uniform (set) in all white, with absolutely no trim color. I've found catcher helmets that are all white but the chest protectors and leg guards have a trim color to them. Any help from anyone is...

    How do Worth bats compare?

    My DD switch teams (12U) about a month ago to an organization that is sponsored by Worth. She currently owns an Easton Stealth and Miken Freak. Swing very well with both of them. Switching over to the new team, she was given a 454 and has been swinging like she has with her other bats. She says...

    buying softballs

    For the last two years, I have purchased used tournament balls wherever my DD would be playing that weekend. That is if that particular TD was selling them. The balls are brand new when they are used for tournament play. When I purchase them, they almost look brand new, there are some with some...

    Wrist bands for plays. Thoughts?

    I'm for wristbands and am considering on trying it out for Fall Ball later this year. I also saw this system being advertised, it's called the signal fan. You can view videos on the website at Sport SignalFan - the winning way to call signs!

    Miken Bats

    I purchased a Miken ICON about 2 years ago for my DD. Bat has held up well. As a matter of fact, within the last few months, she has been hitting so well and consistently with her ICON and Mizuno Frenzy 2.0 which she also has. She refuses to use other bats when offered to her by coaches or...

    Amy- Total Control Sports Ball question

    If anybody is interested, I have new in box, never used, (purchased last year) a 6 ball package of the Atomic Balls TCB-Y-900-120. These are the 4.7 inch weighted balls. I meant to order the smaller ones. Never got around to exchanging them. PM me with an offer if anyone is interested.

    Interference

    Question 1: When a batter/runner runs for 1st after a bunted ball, what must the batter/ runner do to avoid being called out for interference, when the fielder throws the ball to 1st base to get the out. At a previous practice for DD's travel team, one of the coaches was explaining to the...

    "Showcase" and/or "Exposure" tournaments, what exactly are they?

    I keep hearing about "showcase" and "exposure" tournaments lately, mostly for 16u and 18u girls. From what I understand, they are not ran like a regular tournament, there is a lot of shuffling of players in each game and teams don't play to win? Can someone please explain what exactly goes on...

    Look Back Rule & Continuation Play (ASA Rules)

    Funny that you say that. The night before the game (Rec playoff game), I was going through the "local rules" just to be sure I was familiar with what they expected. The Look Back Rule was printed word for word (ASA rules), and sure enough, said situation occurs and I just simply explained the...

    Look Back Rule & Continuation Play (ASA Rules)

    Got a scenario here that has been bugging me, and would like to here your say on it. Runner on 3rd, no outs. BR takes a walk and 1stbase coach decides to send BR to second via the continuation play. Pitcher does her job, hold's ball in circle which invoked the look back rule, runner on 3rd...

    2011 ASA Nationals Sites?

    I don't believe there is a 16U Gold Championship. ASA/USA 16U A Nationals is the highest you can go in championship recognition in that age group.
