    Inside out hitting- Even pitches down the middle..

    16 yrs. Played for at least 6 yrs. I can try to get a video, was just looking for suggestions or ideas, not necessarily trying to put a 16 year old on blast for hundreds of people to critique her swing.

    Inside out hitting- Even pitches down the middle..

    Teenage players and team chemistry

    That was my first thought, we have had multiple team dinners, bonding nights, bowling, and I'm at the point now where I give them partners each week and require that they get to know each other away from softball. I'm still not seeing much progress lol

    Teenage players and team chemistry

    Teenage players and team chemistry

    Anyone have any advice on how to make teenage softball players build better team chemistry? It is a struggle trying to get my 16u team to mesh well and trust/communicate/respect each other.
