Daughter use to go to mike and used redcord with him. She is out of college and was looking to use it again. I can find my notes of the exercises that she did with him. She remembers some but not all
I put that question out there because she came home and said coach wanted that. I have always had her near the left hand corner with left foot. I tell her to yes him to death and do it the way you have always been taught. Just because you are a hs coach does not mean you know what you are...
Has anyone tried the new Easton Jen schro gear yet. Was wonder daughter wears all star shin guards but always get a bruise near her knee from the clips.
You will not believe how heavy those tarps are with rain. Also you have to have some type of sand based strip drain in the outfield for the water drain after the tarp is flipped. Otherwise your outfield would be flooded
Bunt back to the pitcher, pitcher fields the ball cleanly throws to the second baseman covering first. Ball beats base runner but second baseman is not standing on first base. Is this a hit or error on second baseman? Runner would be out if second baseman had foot on bag. This was not a bang...
Dd is freshman varsity catcher. Coach wants her to straddle home near the apex on tag plays at home. I have never heard of this. She has always put her left heel near the left front corner of the plate. Opinions on straddling home.
If one field is ok after rain and the other field is not, it is usually a grading issue. Rain is supposed to shed off the field with 1/2 degree slope. Infield mix is a science, it is not just throw done dirt and hope for the best. Infield mix is made up of sand, slit and clay certain...
Does anyone know how to teach catching a low pitch just below the knees. I know how high level boys do it but not sure on girls due to the size of the ball. Because if you flip the glove over you just told the ump it was a ball. Dd went to necc durning the summer but they did not work on that.
I was looking at one of them. They are not to expensive. There is also a company called "bag a nut" that has a product but is expensive. I wish dfp would make a section on field maintenance so we could run stuff by each other.
Since we are talking maintenance. Two fields at LL complex have a acorn problem that end up all over the skinned area. To much to rake by hand. Has anyone made a drag/scoop that would be able to pick up these acorns. I would like if the trees could be removed but the land is donated and...
We are having the soil tested now to see what amendments need to be add. Then will till that stuff into the top three inches. Looking just to have existing layered to level. I could probably level with a string line grading. But that could take a while on a softball field.
Does anyone know the price of laser grading a softball field in the New York/New Jersey area? I have a meeting with the AD and I am trying to find out prices for him.
DD is a catcher I was wondering if anyone has used a cooling shirt. Yesterday after one of those long innings I saw her face. I could tell she was overheating. Cooled her off with towel from cooler. But was wondering if anyone has worn a cooling shirt or recommend one.
I can not believe the size of the strike zone in college ball. It is the size of a shoebox. The amount of walks or high counts is crazy. Hitters are now just waiting for the pitch that has to be thrown middle and then kaboom. Watching some of the best pitchers in the country struggling with...
