    CV19 must be making you people crazy!

    I just read a thread where someone asked for advise. By page two, Boardmember and Hillhouse had both responded and you people kep giving advice. Once Boardmember and Hillhouse responded, that thread was over. No need to compete with their advice. 😎

    the official “our High School Coach doesn’t have a clue about coaching” thread

    How disappointing so far. My DD makes varsity and is the main pitcher as a freshman. Now after 3 games it has become obvious that the HC has no clue how to call pitches much less coach the girls on offense or defense. He has continued to call curveballs over and over though my daughter has...

    Average pitchers, what is the problem?

    Recently I have been having a discussion with a couple of friends (both former TB coaches, ones a pitchers dad and ones a catchers dad) and my wife about a very common trend I see in softball. My DD has played on high level A teams and what I would refer to as low A teams as well. Though it is...

    Jug machine, what’s my fix?

    I have an older jugs machine with the digital speed screen. When I turn it on it starts spinning and getting faster then it cuts out starts slowing down then cuts back on. It continues this cycle. Does anyone know what the fix is?

    Thoughts on not using a fastball

    What are your thoughts on a coach never calling a fastball for any of their pitchers (not even a peel drop in stead of FB)? Has anyone ever seen someone that only called CUs, C, S, and Drop Curves?

    Pitching Camps

    What camps have you are your DD been to that are multi day camps that cover more than just the basics? Does anything like this exist? Something that covers more than just throwing the ball without stepping all over what their pitching coaches have taught them. Is there anything out there that...

    Betsa , the strike out machine

    Been sitting here watching the Michigan vs Michigan State game. Betsa is just fun to watch. She can really move that ball.

    What to expect when traveling out of state to play?

    Daughter has been asked to join a team that has a lot of out of state tournaments this year. By out of state I mean getting on a plane to get there, not driving one state over. What are things you guys have learned about traveling by plane to games and what things do I need to know? How do...

    12U pitching stats for the season

    For those that have access to this kind of information either from Game Changer, the official game book, or keeping your own stats, what kind of stats are considered good and great for a full season or half a year with a level A travelball bracket pitcher. Mainly looking for comparisons, IP...

    Can someone direct to an ASA rule either in the book or online

    I am trying to find the rule that only allows a player to be registered on one team for championship play and a rule that states once a player is classified as A level they cannot play down a level. Thank you.

    Need a jugs softball ball chute for our leagues pitching machine.

    I am trying to find a used ball chute for our leagues pitching machine. Jugs sells new ones for $39 but they want $23 to ship it! I can't do that just out of principle. Anybody have an extra they want to get rid of? Pm me.

    Feed back on the EZ Riseball

    Have any of you used this product? It looks like it would give some pretty instant feedback for someone just starting to learn to throw a riseball. Anyone tried one?

    Great PGF 10u championship game

    That game was worth watching. Some great ball and clutch plays. I almost had that one predicted from the earlier thread a month ago.

    This was a new one on me

    I am an AC on DD'd team. Both my DD and the HC's DD pitch. At the end of our turn at offense I will usually walk out to the circle and fill in the ruts left by the opposing pitchers drag foot. Both of our pitchers like a fairly flat surface in front of the rubber. For the first time ever the...

    What can I do, anything?

    A couple of months ago I wrote a thread on here to make sure that I was correct on my interpretations of a rule. My DD pitches (Hillhouse student) and she puts her push off heal up against the pitching rubber and her stride toe noses up to the back of the rubber when taking her pitching...

    When a bat is too hot.

    We were at my youngest DD's 8U tournament the last 2 days. My wife had pointed out one of the girls on a different team was able to send a ball to the fence at every at bat and she was barely swinging the bat. It was a CF7 by the way. My 11 yo plays on a A class 10u team and we have both...
