Hey Southern! Welcome to he club! As a fairly new member myself i can tell you that if you search through the content of previous posts you can find just about anything you are looking for. And if you can't there are a ton of great folks here that are more than willing to share their knowledge! Good luck!
Welcome and enjoy the ride. Seriously enjoy it and soak up every single moment. You are going to make a ton of lifelong friends through the sport and gain a bunch of "daughters".
Plenty of knowledge around here if you simply ask for advice or go digging. I joined my DD's first year of 8U because I knew I didn't know anywhere enough about softball to be an effective coach. I learned so much from the members here from basic drills and strategy to help with DD's college search. Now 11 years later she is playing her Senior year and getting ready for the next step in the journey.

For the record, I meant to type THE CLUB not HE CLUB. lol, my bad....
A few guidelines for 10U (don't just apply to 10U)...
- Keep it fun.
- Attention spans are short. During practices, change the activity/drill frequently.
- Keep it fun.
- Praise the effort, not just a successful outcome.
- Keep it fun.
- They're 9-10yos, and still learning how to make their bodies work. Some will shock you with how quickly they learn new things. Others will shock you with how they don't. Adjust your expectations accordingly.
