    Wilson - Drawstring Closure on Baseball Gloves?

    My DD likes the Wilson Draw String Closure feature on her softball glove (H12). She definitely wants that feature in the next glove. Can the Wilson BB gloves wrist opening be re-laced like the softball gloves without any new holes or mods to the leather? I can't seem to tell from looking at...

    Glove Relace Question

    I am going to take a shot at relacing my old HOH 1005. I went to https://www.buyfastpitchgloves.com/ and bought 6 - 3/16 and 3 - 1/4 laces. I did measure and the 1005 does use 1/4 at the top. I bought enough for another glove if this goes well and I enjoy it. Reading deeper in the site...

    USSSA Coaches Card?

    Batter Runner Interference

    Had this happen this weekend. In the end, it did not make a difference but I am wondering what the correct call is. My dd's team was at bat. 1st and 3rd, 1 Out (I doubt it matters), 3&2 count. On release runner on 1st steals. Ball 4. Catcher comes up throwing, Batter Run starts to go to...

    Look Back Rule? I don't know what happened.

    I am not sure what exactly happened. I am hoping that someone might be able to tell me if the ump made a mistake or I don't understand the rules. I believe this is what happened, but as things move quickly, it is possible something might be slightly out of order. I know 6 started before 7...

    Another Bat Size Thread

    DD is entering 2nd year 12u this fall. I just measured her shoulders and it looks like she is 16 inches across. Or darn close. She is 4'11'' about 105 - 110. She swung a demarini CF 30-11 this past year. Unfortunately, there was only one player on her team swinging a 31 and it was also a CF...

    Arm Bands and 12U - Great Googily Moogily

    Are coaches doing this at 12U to speed up the games? two weeks ago, we had 2 different teams that must have just started using the arm bands. Maybe the coaches forgot to bring their reading glasses but you could see them scanning their sheet trying to find, "Inside fastball". They had no clue...

    Bunter out while in the box

    This happened twice this weekend with the same HP umpire. Perhaps I've never properly understood the batters box rules. The batter is sacrifice bunting. She is all the way at the front of the box. She bunts the ball into fair territory and it bounces back up and hits the batter runner (BR)...

    Demarini Prism Plus

    So, I've been wondering about the 2021 Prisms. I did a search and this came up. Somehow the staging site for demarini is getting indexed. I think it looks pretty cool. http://wcbstage.demarini.com/custom/fastpitch/model Wondering what the full set of changes are going to be.

    Not Pushing at 10U.

    I hoping to get a little sanity check. Well truthfully someone to tell me I am right :) Last fall my DD played travel as a first year 10U. In-between two different foot injuries she played pretty well and mostly hit at the top of the lineup. For reasons this dad still does not understand (I...

    How do you choose a 2nd pitch?

    My dd is 10. She started with a tincher in Dec. She had pretty regular lessons into March. At that point PC (is a college PC) started having games and DD started having regular practice and games making it hard to schedule lessons. Late May and my DD has an upcoming game against a good...
