    ASA National bid question

    If a team from Georgia wins a bid to Asa nationals playing in Florida and then decides to play a national qualifier in Georgia, do they forfeit their previously won bid from Florida??

    nervous in the box?!?

    I handled it a little different than most, probably would get arrested doing it this way now. I made my DD stand in close while i pitched as hard and inside as I could. Telling her if she backed out I would hit her with the next one.(never did) She stood there in tears but never backed out. Now...

    Does this exist everywhere? Am i crazy to think they should be removed? Am i wrong?

    My DD is a pitcher and when the other team starts cheering at her she cheers with them. Does'nt bother her.

    What is the call?

    This weekend in a game my dd was playing in they had a couple calls I didnt understand. The play was there is a runner on 2nd the batter lays down a bunt then drops her bat making contact with the ball a second time. The batter runs to first and our catcher throws her out. The plate umpire calls...

    In need of advice

    I dont have any video but I think you are right. When she is cool and calm its HE all day But get her mad her whole release changes. Different spin on the ball and faster.

    In need of advice

    As the title says Im in need of a little advice. My dd is going to be 12 in April. She has been pitching for about a year. She throws 46mph and can hit her spots 80% of the time. She has been taught the dreaded HE style. We have talked about it and we both understand the benefits from switching...

    What is the true cost of travel ball?

    I have never set down to figure out the price of softball. She loves it and the family loves it. Thats all that matters to me.

    No warmup!!!

    If it matters the outing was 3 up 3 down. This was never a discussion about performance, it was about risking injury to my DD. My DD found out she was pitching when she was in the hole to bat. She ended up getting stranded on 2nd when the third out was made. She has been pitching about 6 months...

    No warmup!!!

    3 more games. She said she would finish the season. What is funny is this is a private christian school.

    No warmup!!!

    No history what so ever. He was just hired this year to be the AD-basketball coach- softball coach. I might not agree with not cutting girls at tryouts, playing everyone every game or his lack of softball knowledge cause he is the coach not me but when you consistantly do things to endanger the...

    No warmup!!!

    It sounds like you are talking out of your ear! Yes I have coached in real game situations and would still if my work schedule didnt interfere. Having even offered to help this guy on my free time. My dd did suck it up. 3 up, 3 down. Never was a question of balls and strikes, it was a question...

    No warmup!!!

    He started cussing. So I come back at him. I would be more than happy to warm up any of the pitchers, not just my dd and have even offered to do so.

    No warmup!!!

    It is a middle school team. If it was her travel team I would have waited the 24 hours. It wasn't the first time it happened but I'll bet you its the last. If I believed in quitting she wouldn't play for him again but I don't. Only 3 more games to go.

    No warmup!!!

    It was the beginning of the third inning. His response to me was its up to her to get herself warm. We are talking about an 11 year old girl. She found out after our third out. He comes in the dugout and told her to go pitch. After our conversation that turned into a good cussing( after he...

    No warmup!!!

    Is just me or is it bad for my dd to be throwed in to pitch with no warmup prior to pitching. Just the five pitches prior to starting the inning? It can't be good I'm sure of that. Had a conversation with the coach about it after the game and that didn't go very well as I expected.

    Very frustrating night at the ball park

    I didn't know that. I really wasn't that concerned about the distance.
