    Pitching Programs

    Does anyone recommend any pitching programs online? I’ve been looking at Top Velocity’s 16 week program online. Any certifications out there for teaching/coaching pitchers similar to Epstein Hitting cert?

    Wrist Coach - Play Band

    10U travel ball coach here. First year in 10U. I’ve been seeing several posts of tournaments where the girls are wearing play bands. Not sure about everyone else, but our pitchers throw a fastball and 1/4 of them have a reliable changeup. Am I missing something? Why would 10yo’s need a play band?

    Outfield Depth Perception

    Yeah, flipping hips or flipping feet. We want to teach our players to flip their bodies to reduce stress on their knees when “turning” to run to a ball hit over their head or to get to a point of settling under the ball. Something Alabama teaches.

    Situational Fielding - 10U

    Where do you coach your girls to go with the ball? These are all assumed to be a grounder to the infield. I wish there was a guide for this kind of stuff lol 1. Runner on second, no outs (check runner, take out at first? Or just take the out at first and ignore the runner until after the out?)...

    Outfield Depth Perception

    We did this at practice last week. It was a game changer for judging the ball. Most of our girls grasped it. We started with tennis balls. I threw the ball and yelled “right leg, left leg, or front” and they were required to position their body where the ball would hit in that general area. We...

    Outfield Depth Perception

    Yes! We use a lot of cones. We warm up our hips and flipping our feet for over the shoulder or settling under the ball.

    10U Rotation

    I have an older 10 who will be dominate for us as a pitcher this year. We have three younger 9’s who are still trying to figure out how to throw strikes. They’re getting better each week, but just young and new to pitching. How would you all suggest a rotation in that scenario? We’re a travel...

    Outfield Depth Perception

    10U ball. Girls are still struggling to adjust their feet, take angles, flip their hips, and track the ball. We teach drop step, flipping hips, angling their approach, and getting under the ball. Unless it’s hit right to them, they struggle. They’re just not grasping the depth of the fly ball...

    Coaching Third

    Moving into 10U this year. What are some rules for a third base coach? Situational, base running, etc.
