    Looking for players

    We are a 14A team moving to 16A in the fall. Looking at playing college showcases, PGF, and ASA. Looking for players interested in playing softball in college. Have a very talented group of girls and need to add the right mix of players. All positions considered must have a good bat. If you are...

    Showcase Behavior

    https://lowermac14u.shutterfly.com/pictures/4253 This is what we did on our uniforms for the showcases. I saw it on some of the girls down at the South Florida camp and thought it was very good

    Off season conditioning

    I had a new player come on board to my 12uB team in the fall and her father is very into the strength and conditioning. He has been running our conditioning stuff for 30 minutes before our hitting session (in the winter I work on strictly hitting then move outdoors to work on fielding) and has...

    How can coaches show interest

    If your TB is doing their job then a coach should have your DDs contact info. I made a booklet with alot of info, from contacts to stats, even some recognitions. At every college showcase we went to I would call pitches while we were on field. While we hit I would walk around and hand out my...

    My DDs school is 3 1/2 hrs away so going to watch will be tough. But I will do my best to watch s much as possible.

    Pennsbury Invitational Softball Tournament

    Summer after her Sophomore year. was just reading my post. When she actually got recruited was the summer after her junior year. She got alot of interest though her sophomore year at the camp.

    Pennsbury Invitational Softball Tournament

    I highly recommend going to this. I took my DD as a sophomore just to give her a look. This way she wouldnt be overwhelmed when it really meant something (being an overprotective dad). There are a ton of coaches there for the camp and the tourney. You can guest play for some really good...

    pitching speed around the US

    Yea but like you said Kelsi was a tremendous talent with a ton of ball control. Most of the coaches I have spoken with over the years at the Pennsbury showcase/camp are looking for 60plus before they look even further. If you are throwing the ball less then that you better make the ball...

    My 2 DD hitting today

    Hey Yall thanks for the discussion. I dont have all the stuff to put a gif next to someone else and compare. IMO she isnt getting enough drive off her back leg either. Her college coach is working on her not being so straight legged to help get her hips to help give more power and drive. She is...

    My 2 DD hitting today

    I took a video today of my two dd hitting. First one is of my 10yr old. She is playing u12 this year but she isnt much of a hitter. She is my lead off batter mostly by bunting. She is super fast and she has been working on slapping. Tatum Hitting - YouTube 2nd video is of my oldest...

    Rough Weekend for my DD

    I have taught my dd from the beginning STAY HUMBLE there is always someone out there that is better. Im most positive you will see a complete turn around in her outlook of the game and her physical as well as mental preperation for the game. Best of Luck

    Stealing/recruiting players

    Im not a straight tournament team, but we play alot of tournaments along with our travel league. PLAYING TIME must be split under the bylaws of our organization. So therefore she got same amount playing time. Like I said I dont fault parents for doing what they felt was right by their dd. Just...

    Stealing/recruiting players

    Parents didnt give me a reason, and I dont fault them for doing what they felt is right for their dd. The problem I have is this same org contacted my players last year as a 10u and now they went after my girls again this fall in 12u. The girl they took was my #4 pitcher but with her going to...

    Stealing/recruiting players

    I made the turn back coming thru with the younger age groups. Does anyone else experience haveing thier players stolen or recruited. At the older age groups I know it happens but I cant believe that it goes on at the 10u / 12u groups. We had a pretty decent fall season going 20-3 but still these...

    Low Rise for a Strike?

    The low rise can be just as effective as a regular or high rise. Our coach teaches the girls to start the ball at or just below the knees and get it to end at the belt or just above. If you it is working correctly the batter is setting up for a low pitch drops the bat head and swings underneath...
