my DD would probably pick "Let the bodies hit the floor"
I've heard that song. Not necessarily my cup of tea but it's my sister's walkup song. So... I really can't say anything.

she would choose it specifically for shock intimidation factor. she wants a tshirt that says "Leroy Brown is my @#$%&"I've heard that song. Not necessarily my cup of tea but it's my sister's walkup song. So... I really can't say anything.

Definitely should not be playing walk up music for other team...........Tournament last spring parents on other team played a short bit of 'Under Pressure' when my DD went up to bat after player before her struck out. She hit a double.
Don’t play music between innings. Most fields are close and out of respect for the other games you shouldn’t do it. There should be enough to talk about(adjustments, upcoming approach, etc..) that musics isn’t necessary. Warm up, post game, pregame I get it.(Keep a good volume and make sure it is appropriate versions). I can’t tell you how many teams have unclean or inappropriate in nature songs blasting for the entire park to hear.My daughter is a member of a travel softball team. We play music for the girls between innings. We had been told, by someone with way more knowledge than us, that it was the unwritten rule to play the music for your team as your team left the field and was coming up to bat. However, we continue to find teams that either do not follow this rule, or are not aware of it, and play the music on the opposite schedule, which is when their girls are taking the field.
What is the "rule"? Should the music be played as your team comes up to bat? Or as your team takes the field?
We definitely play music at practice. We will turn it down when we need to talk, but it is playing 98% of the time. We won't play music during games, but we will play it before games during our warm-ups. We try to make sure it isn't a distraction for other teams which may be playing. The girls pick the songs and build the playlist with a couple of coaches' favorites thrown in to maintain our sanity.Do you incorporate it into your practice plans? Maybe yes for water balloon day. Hard enough to get their attention as it is.
Sounds like you have a team where you are teaching respect and good communication! Kudos! Is this a TB team? Age?We definitely play music at practice.
