    courtesy runners

    Hey all, want to check the ruling for the courtesy runners for the pitchers and catchers in high school. So our coach usually has three subs on our bench and they are used to run for the pitcher and catcher.. about half way through the game, he might put those subs in for other girls in the...

    seen quite a bit of leaping this weekend

    Hey everyone. We played in a tournament this last weekend at the 16U level, and in most of our games we seen at least one pitcher on each team that would leap with that drive foot, so I was watching our pitchers more carefully and I noticed ours do it once and a while as well, not every time...

    14u dd’s swing

    She is usually good at bendingthe front knee a little more and then into the front side better... she is usually bent a little more on the front side than that video, but see your point.. angle of the camera might make it look like that

    Either my Pocket Radar is inaccurate...

    The other day at tryouts, I found out that my pocket radar must have been broken too.. I was clocking the girls and some had no idea what they threw, so no surprises there, but I got to one and I asked her if she had been clocked before.. and she was like "yeah I have gotten 51 before with my...

    Looking for some Hitting Practices ideas

    Hey guys, I am holding some hitting practices for a 12u team.. I have an hour with these girls, so just getting an idea of what stations would be best. I have some in mind but just getting some different ideas. I do want to include me pitching to the girls and at least giving them a bucket...

    Question about a pickle play

    I hear you, but if she doesn't have the ball just seems like she shouldn't be able to straddle the baseline.. our runner was probably three feet way from her coming into home as the ball was being thrown to the catcher.. so just sounds like the best thing to do there is to run around her and...

    thoughts on 10U swing.

    I agree.. I seen the hands and the flat swing.. you are right with 10U you can create a lot of power with the level of pitching. I just wanted to make sure you guys are seeing the same thing. I also noticed to try and get a better coil or separation. I also agree as in "messing".. I...

    thoughts on 10U swing.

    hey guys.. what do you think of this 10U swing.. she is hitting the ball really well, so we really don't want to mess with it that much.. if you have some pointers that we can work on that would be appreciated.. she is an aggressive hitter so she looks to hit whatever she can...
