    PC Recommendation Dallas Area

    My daughters PC went to group lessons about 7 mo ago and we just arent seeing progression and we are even seeing regression in her accuracy. There are 4 girls w 2 catchers (sometimes 3 to 1) and they've started doing a ton of stations w no one really monitoring the stations to ensure the...

    Uncaught third strike rule

    We have a 10u team who is swinging at what would potentially be a third strike before it reaches the plate and running to first in order to take advantage of the uncaught third strike rule. The batters are swinging when the pitch is 2-3 feet from the plate. Are there any ASA rules that they are...

    Should 10u be moving their lower body when batting?

    The coach was telling the girls to move to the line as soon as they entered the box. He wouldn't release the ball until they did as he asked.

    Should 10u be moving their lower body when batting?

    They aren't teaching anything different from OF to IF. Most of their practices consist of throws from third or ss to first as well as popup, and grounders. The few practices where they practiced in the OF the girls were told to line up in a "relay" to get the ball back to IF, which I understand...

    Should 10u be moving their lower body when batting?

    I laughed when I saw your reply. Their comments on my dd's throwing also have me confused. They have repeatedly said that they don't want to see the arc in the throw. They want to see a straight throw. No matter how much my dd practices she has some arc which they repeatedly tell her is b/c she...

    Should 10u be moving their lower body when batting?

    My DD is not big anywhere, esp in her upper body. She has long arms and legs but she isn't very tall (and really skinny). Along with completely changing her batting stance, they also told her to get a lower weight bat (-13), which I've now reading maybe incorrect. I'm beyond frustrated. They...

    Should 10u be moving their lower body when batting?

    Thanks for the responses. She looks very uncomfortable/awkward during the swing. She'll still step/shift when she isn't concentrating on preventing the motion and they are getting upset with her. I think I need to find her a hitting instructor so that she can learn from someone who really knows...

    Should 10u be moving their lower body when batting?

    My dd's current team has been telling her that she isn't to step or shift her weight when swinging. Her HC has told me that they don't want them doing that until they are a few years older. He said it was too much for the girls to process. Anyone heard else that?

    Tryout question

    This is her first time to tryout for a select team so we are still feeling our way. I really don't any clue how many girls are on the team. I think around 8 but it is hard to tell b/c he's had issues with girls showing up for practice. They are really positive towards her and at the last batting...

    Tryout question

    David, I think that you hit the nail on the head. There was a girl that we hadn't heard about before that suddenly showed up and was wearing one of their practice tees at the last practice. He's also been having problems with girls not showing up to practice so I'm wondering if he's using the...

    Tryout question

    My daughter has been trying out for a select softball team since the beginning of June. The head coach has told myself as well as 3 other parents that he doesn't make any decisions about whether players will be on the team until he has seen them tryout at their practices several times. I do...
