    Keep your ears and eyes open "be cautious about this" thread, good stuff

    [QUDuring this parent's meeting, no one spoke up and said " We don't give Suzy full reign of a cell phone. You need to contact me?" No way. Like I said he is and the orgnization is very respected. Kids play and parents watch end of story. I agree totally he is just setting him self up. I have...

    COACH, I could use some segestions

    I agree, I should be able to talk. Don't misunderstand. The coach the team the orgnization all are great and only play at the highest level. The coaches are great with the kids as well and they, the girls, recieve only the best of everything. As far as going to another team. Honestly there are...

    COACH, I could use some segestions

    So Cal, Igree I'm overthinking. Somewhat? I can't screw this up. And yes this means as much to dd as well. Wookie. I go to the coach and I'm wrong she is done there, at 13 forever, this is how it works. I need you all to understand. I said I would never glote about the kid. And I won't. ok I...

    COACH, I could use some segestions

    First thank you for your input. here are a few coments on the stuff you have said. It seems you, most all think I should go to him. I think asking what his intentions are and she has other teams she can join is the way to go. But, I also agree it's not my place to ask as FPMark stated. That is...

    How did you find the Discuss Fastpitch Forum?

    Ken I think you guys do a great job and have a great deal of persons on here that really know what they are talking about. To grow is a good thing for the most part sometimes. It can be a double edge sword. I live here in Mich. and we have a local board softball, (I don't even go there anymore...

    '' who is right or wrong here coach or parent ''

    justwanttoplay, Think you should get them together (someone needs to) and then set a team metting as a group to discuss. Why lose her? Parents way out of line they should have never pulled her, they are nutt cases for sure. It is very aparent the coach had not set the ground rules nor had he...

    Is it safe to teach a 9 year old a Screwball?

    Screwball, Yep agree, It just kills me to think that a Pc or more likely a parent thinks at 9 it time to teach his kid this, SoCal in his first post had heard about someone teaching a screw at 9. And about "what the coaches would say" about a 9 yr old learning a screw, I just think there would...

    Is it safe to teach a 9 year old a Screwball?

    Ken I agree you can not make a blanket statment for that pitch. This was the topic, (The screw) and I asked the doctor only because the chance was there and she gave me some good info. Also I agree there are kids out there that are advanced and have developed or growen. Like I said, 1 in about...

    Is it safe to teach a 9 year old a Screwball?

    information to understand why a peel release for the screw across the midsection would be harmful. it had not to do with turning the wrist over but bringing the elbow in-ward towards the trunck in a bent manor on release causing the strain one the inter growth plate, not the uper that ties...
