    Looking for a lesson or practice to join this week while out of town in Brevard Co Florida.

    The Family and I used to live in Brevard co and will be visiting friends between playing at Scenic city this weekend and next weekend's showcase in Clearwater (we are based in Virginia). Anyone willing to allow a "guest practice" with them Tuesday the 8th or Wednesday the 9th? I thought it...

    Delayed knee extension?

    I first heard of Delayed knee extension from Danielle Rubin. She has her material under DR3 pitching. https://www.facebook.com/dr3pitching/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIgsnv8wD5abuAMmtl7RnPA/featured

    Interesting pitching instructional I havent seen before

    Interesting pitching instructional I havent seen before. Looks very old, demo looks good but instruction gets a little HE. Either way like I said one I haven't seen before.

    Fundamentals

    Another route is to look for coaches clinics and get the others to attend with you.

    High School playing time/positions, How to ask...from the kid's perspective.

    3rd, SS, CF, P1, and RF are all seniors. All played in the org at one point(not sure of current travel status). Current LF/backup 2B is a freshman and plays for chosen org. 1st is a junior and both C and 2nd are juniors that play for the same team under the chosen org. All else are sophomores...

    High School playing time/positions, How to ask...from the kid's perspective.

    In addition, someone said, maybe the coaches DD and the others of her starters play for the "batbusters" of the area. That is not the case DD plays for one of the most recognized orgs in the area. The org the coaches DD plays for is seen as mid tier by many. We already do all the things you...

    High School playing time/positions, How to ask...from the kid's perspective.

    I know this looks like she isn't good enough but I'm telling you there is something wrong here. Watch her play vs watching this team play is night and day. Our travel team doesn't play the locals here, we were in clearwater, scenic city, new Jersey, and will be in Denver this summer, she hits...

    High School playing time/positions, How to ask...from the kid's perspective.

    slight update, here is the current offensive state of the team after 2 scrimmages and 3 games (all stats from 5 games). My daughter is at the top with least amount of chances. Team last night could not get a ball out of the infield and RF bunted out on 3rd strike. Its F'n ridiculous at this...

    High School playing time/positions, How to ask...from the kid's perspective.

    The wrestle off was sometimes the most fun we had in practice. It was a great moment when so and so could finally beat the other guy at his weight class and it was a clear indicator of earning the start. Seems like a clear way to set a line up other than "coaches perception". I didn't grow up...

    This has been my mentality about the situation.

    High School playing time/positions, How to ask...from the kid's perspective.

    Current 2b is a slower runner (on D and O), and hasn't hit out of the infield in these now 2 scrimmage games. Today current 2b did make a good diving catch to her right (if she were faster it wouldn't need be a dive) but couldn't get up quick enough and threw the ball at first's feet when she...

    High School playing time/positions, How to ask...from the kid's perspective.

    DD is a sophomore and was the only freshman to make the team last year. She had very limited playing time her first year and was on the bench for the first 5 innings in this seasons 1st scrimmage. it Seems she has locked herself into being the back up 3rd base. During tryouts she didn't "get...

    First year 14U -How to pick a team?

    Both Pattar and strike2 make great points. 14U is a tricky age group. My DD and I had a wild experience for her 14U's. When moving up to 14 we left a 12U team that she wasn't getting much time on and joined a new team where she settled in as SS and P2. after the fall season we had a messy...
