    Were you in Overland, KS this weekend?

    Our team went to Overland,KS tournament. We made the trip from Colorado and played very well. We are a first year 14, and ran into pretty much 2nd year 14 teams. We played hard, and went 1-3 for the weekend. For most, I think they'd consider it a loss, but, we were in those games, and that...

    DD Pitch analysis please

    Hi all, well, I've finally taken a minute to video and post and such. Was looking for some feedback. My dd will probably check this, so please be sensitive to a young ladies feelings in your commentary. Obviously, feel free, but also try and color it so she can constructively learn. She is...

    Finch Windmill?

    We are discussing purchasing one for the family. My daughter pitches. My son pitches. I play ball. Wife would maybe enjoy using it as well. Anyone have one? Do you feel it was a good investment. They are pricey, and currently, I'm not seeing any used ones on the market. We primarily want...

    Ringor Cleats

    DD got a pair of Ringor's with her team uniform. All players got them. Pitchers got with toe's. They are the Diamond Gem's, so the lightest pair that Ringor sells. These are the molded plastics, as she is only 12. What has me concerned is the weight of the shoes. The website does not post...

    Tryouts a few months later

    So, my dd is rather tiny. She is 12U, but could probably play on 8U's by her size. I was trying to figure it out, she must be about 4'-10" and around 76 lbs. She went to tryouts in the fall. She had one tryout she didn't do real well on in her outfield work. However, her performance in all...

    Pitching Chart

    I can't remember where I came across it, or if it was posted here, but just a few days ago, I saw a hitting weakness chart. It talked about batters stance, hand position, and I think nearness to plate, and where to pitch to them to pitch to their weak spots. Anyone know what I'm talking about...

    DD Pitching

    Well, I got the go ahead to post a video of her pitch. This is really rough video, but it's enough to get the ball rolling. I hope to get a much better version before too long. She is 11 (turns 12 in mid-August). A whole 4'-09" and 70 lbs. Not very much body mass there yet... we have our...

    Tube video I ran across

    What do you guys think of this video and drills? Something to make use of? ‪Rotational Hitting School... Before and After‬‏ - YouTube It seems very interesting, and has stuff in there that I have come to think I'm supposed to be moving towards.

    My DS Swing... are boys allowed in here too?

    Since we work closely together and my limited knowledge is teaching both kids, I think they are similar in their swings...but then again, maybe not. Funny how two kids taught the same stuff, have different issues. If we say the swing is the swing, then softball vs baseball shouldn't matter.:)

    My DD swing...

    Here is a couple of my daughters swings. Let's see where this can go. She is a pretty good worker, but prefers to spend more time pitching than hitting. I'm hoping this will help spark her to want to spend more time on the hitting as well.
