    Bunting with hands together

    Our travel coach has all our girls trying this new/different approach with limited success. My opinion is that if the old way wasn't broke then it doesn't need fixing.

    Am I being over-critical?

    If the guy makes you crazy then he makes you crazy and you have to deal with it... I've been there a couple of times. Your options are to grin and bear it or confront the guy and then you run the risk of your DD losing playing time. You my friend are in a no win situation. All you can do is...

    Tryouts... Opinions needed

    Whew, I feel your pain! My daughter has moved a couple of times in her career and we knew when it was time to go... It seems that you have a lot of good things going on but the benchwarming thing is really unacceptable. If you and your daughter feel that she should be starting then you should...

    What makes a good softball coach?

    You have done a great job of defining the skills required to coach. The only thing I would add is that to do those things objectively, it is really hard to have a conflict of interest (Dad Coach). There are teams that have women coaches who have played college ball and just love the sport...
