    Hitting Advice!

    I have a player that during tee work and front toss she has a great swing and stays on the ball at contact. During games it all changes and her hands drop and her swing becomes long and loopy as she misses underneath the ball at least 4-6 inches. I have developed great hitters but I am lost...

    Would it be your step over more to the right of the power line or just release a little sooner?

    Both of my teams pitchers throw a real nice curveball and was thinking about trying to get them to throw a back door curve but have no idea how to throw it. Anyone know???? I want to keep them with 2-3 real good pitches and I like this pitch rather than a screwball as you don't see the...

    You always see the good teams that their batters are talking to the on deck batter or the entire team after she strikes out or goes to the dugout. Is she telling her team what the pitcher is throwing????

    11 Year Old Pitching Speed and Accuracy

    I always here in this forum about speed, speed, speed. I have a daughter that just turned 11 years old in October and she throws 40-42mph but can hit all 6 of her spots pretty consistently and also has a great drop ball and change up. We are working on Riseball and Screwball which she can do...

    Slowing speed down during game

    I asked my daughter if she is throwing her hardest in games as she does in practice. She said she doesn't want to walk anyone and hit her spots so she let's up a little. How can I fix this?

    U10 Team playing U12

    I am the coach of a very competitive U10 team and was thinking about moving up in league play and play in the U12 division. I still want to take them to U10 tournaments but need competition in our league. Do you think changing balls back and fourth would matter? Expecially pitching?

    falling off to side

    I do see that. So we need to work on disengage at 12oclock?

    falling off to side

    Thanks for the video. She throws about 40mph now and is pretty accurate at hitting all of her spots so this should help increasing those things. So work on?? Staying on the power line which will fix most of her bad habits. More push off with her back foot.
