    End of an awesome ride as a softball dad

    Yeah. I imagine a lot of mixed feelings. Our home field was not in great shape for a few years. When my oldest graduated, I kept remembering her little league days when she picked flowers in the outfield. :)

    Hell no!! And get yelled at by a-hole softball dads like me. No thank you! LOL I actually think the softball moms are worse with umpires but don't tell my wife that.

    End of an awesome ride as a softball dad

    I am sad to say that my role as a softball dad will end soon. This week marks the end of a 11 year ride in fastpitch for me. Both my girls played travel ball and their varsity teams. My oldest even plays college D3. But they both decided that this will be their last season playing softball...

    Tournaments or leagues for over 18+

    I wrote to Island Fastpitch last year and nobody responded. I will try again. Given the lack of good options, I think I may have to create a league or tournament myself. Setting up the event is doable. But finding the fields for an outside event is hard. Its so tough to find softball...

    Tournaments or leagues for over 18+

    Hi all, I posted something similar last year so I am checking again in case something new popped up. My daughter's team have all aged out of travel ball but they want to play in the summer. Are there any fastpitch leagues or tournaments for adults near the NYC/Tristate Area? Even a little...

    Whats after 18U?

    We saw a lot of senioritis even at 18U so i can imagine. I think I may try starting a pick-up game event and see what the interest looks like.

    Whats after 18U?

    My DD and her 18U team are playing her final travel tournament next week. My daughter will play in college but for players not playing in college, is this the end of their fastpitch journey? I saw that there's a 23U recreational league for baseball. Do leagues like that exist for...

    JV - path to Varsity or dead end?

    A Varsity coach will look for quality players whether they come from JV or not. So the real question is, is your JV team preparing the players for Varsity? Does your community support fastpitch in general? My neighborhood does not unfortunately. They barely tolerate fastpitch and favor...

    In need of bucket parent 101

    I would suggest bringing the bucket when DD is fairly consistent with her pitches and spotting. If she's still wild, the bucket causes more pain (literal physical pain) for you. Some pitches are harder to catch when you're on the bucket. Low drop balls around the edges are really hard in...
