Recently gotten back into coaching. (Baseball and Softball 8u). Both teams have coaches who have different opinions of foot work. Some say to "step through or cross over" as Howard Kobata teaches. The others say to replace feet or shuffle since that what the pros do.
I've had discussion's with a lot of coaches most say it depends on style/region of play. I personally like the step through/cross over to keep momentum in direction of throw. I also see some benefit in the shuffle.
Which way taught to your dd? Does it vary from baseball to softball? What are the pros / cons to either?
