The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary, or as I tell my daughter you have to put the work in to get the success out. A large part of college practice or a good High School ball practice is hitting off a tee and soft toss. I watched Team USA practice and guess what a large part of their practice was hitting off a tee. I know coaches who preach tee work from 100 to 300 swings a day. Seems I read somewhere that Crystal Bustos hitting practice included an hour and a half of tee work a day.
It somewhat puzzles me when a young player thinks they are too good to hit from a tee, not saying that is your daughter just standing on my soapbox here.
Yes tee work and soft toss can be boring, but when those hits start falling it makes it worth it. I didn’t have a lot of money for lessons so I learned form books, took advice from some good coaches and learned a great deal from people on this forum.
There is more than one way to skin that cat.
No one knows the situation better that you do and if your daughters goals have changed or if the direction she is going will meet her needs, you and her need to evaluate and make the decision best for her.
Awesome post, i agree 100%!
It always cracks me up how people forget how important T work is. Just as much when a batter is struggling and i watch a coach continue to pitch to them over and over thinking that will solve something. No, you must go to a T and break it down.
