    First Varsity HR

    My freshman daughter hit her first Varsity HR yesterday. A no doubter to left field to tie the game in the 6th inning. Even better is that her team pulled out the win in the 10th inning. Great game!

    Daughter's team won Nationals

    My daughter's 14u team won their Nationals tournament. No, it's not PGF, but it was still a great experience. They played great all week, and even though they are a Futures team, they beat a number of 2nd year teams. Great group of girls, and a great drama free team!

    They should move back college fences

    I was at 1 day of the Clearwater Invitational and I think there were something like 14 home runs in the 3 games I watched. All but 2 of them were crushed and would have been out if the fences were 220ft - some of them were def over 250ft. It's crazy to me that many colleges play on field with...

    Clearwater Invitational

    Just bought tickets to attend the Clearwater Invitational in Feb. We had friends attend last year and they had a great time. Any tips or advice on what to do/see or what to avoid? Thanks!

    First Tournament at 14U

    Hats off to my daughter's team that finished runner up in their first tournament after moving up to 14U. The girls started slowly, but then turned it on and played very well on Sunday in the rain - losing to a second year 14U team in the championship. Great job all around!

    Field Tarps

    Has anyone ever seen a facility use them? I haven't here in the NY/NJ/PA/CT area and I am continually amazed that organizations/towns/facilities will spend millions of dollars on fields and not spend another $2K-$4K on a tarp. Especially places that host Nationals. It seems like a smallish...

    Help with daughter out on her front foot

    My daughter is a pretty good 12U hitter. However, this is her last season of 12U and the combination of being very comfortable with 99% of 12U pitchers and seeing some slower pitchers has her developing a bad habit of lunging out on her front foot. She's losing all of her power and weakly...

    Proud of our 12U team

    The first weekend in April my daughter's 12U team was in a stacked USSSA tournament in South Jersey featuring 24 high level teams from CT, NY, NJ, PA, MD, and DE. Right out of the gate our first game was against a team who is a top 10 national USSSA team. It was a pitchers duel and our...

    Adventure Sports & Entertainment Complex NJ

    Had our first experience playing at this complex this past weekend. It's far from complete (more on that), but it's pretty impressive. 8 new turf fields with 8 ft tall adjustable outfield fencing, a few batting cages, and room to warm up. They are still waiting on their CO for their...

    Would you want your daughter playing for this coach?

    We were at a tournament this weekend and our field was back to back with another one. While we were waiting for our game I started watching the game on the field next to us. Very competitive game, but what stood out was one of the coaches was literally cursing every other word in front of and...

    Travel versus Club is there a difference?

    I'm guessing this is a regional thing, but here in NJ there is a distinction between travel ball and club ball. When we refer to a "travel" team it's a town travel team that is only able to pull players from that town or a few neighboring towns if there is a regional high school. Typically...
