    Gamechanger Issues

    I had similar problem this summer. Once in Newberry, Fl and then again at Atlanta Legacy. Thought issue in FL was the area being somewhat remote and maybe the cellular performance. When it repeated in GA I knew it was on their side. I do agree they have good customer service and they are...

    12U pitchers throwing 58-60 mph

    That is the same experience my DD had the couple of visits we had with Rita. No run and gun. I had my own pocket radar and it got the same reading as her jugs gun. I think the competition part was helpful,as the girls didn’t have to focus on the fact they were being gunned. They were just...

    Velocity vs accuracy

    Correct the times DD posted for the site were max effort for speed and not for any level of accuracy. The difference for DD from her numbers at the facility and in game were in the 2-3 range as mentioned above. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Velocity vs accuracy

    DD has been there a couple of times. I held pocket radar next to the JUGS gun they were using and got the same number. But that was just our experience. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Velocity vs accuracy

    I started wearing crocs to catch years back to protect the toes. With shin guards and a mask it’s enough to prevent most injuries. But I agree once they throw north of 60 with movement its tough so best to get a catcher or a 9 hole. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Custom glove experiences??

    Got dd a custom marucci back in 2019. It held up ok but the red faded pretty bad pretty quick. Went to a Wilson A2000 and now a pro 44. I may have a slight problem. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Spin, Speed or Spot??? in light of the WCWS

    I think speed at younger age and lower levels is the lead factor for success since It can intimidate batters. That includes throwing straight gas as well as a good change up. Think of some of those swing and misses you have seen. Once you get to older ages and high levels the spot and spin take...

    How to Fly with Softball Gear

    DD is not a catcher but travels with catchers bag on planes. Smaller then golf bag so you avoid some additional fees for being oversized. Glove and uniforms in carry ons. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

    2 years ago DD (8th grade at the time) had numbness and tingling in right arm during a winter lesson. She had been recovering from a previous injury in her neck and shoulder from a few months earlier. We took her to local drs for X-rays and found that she had broken her first rib a few weeks...

    Summer softball camps

    We sent our DD to JMU overnight camp a couple of years when she was 10 and 12u. She went with a couple of team mates and had a great time. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Winter break

    Dd is 14 and took off October (due to an injury) and most of November (season over). Has started back slowly by pitching once a week. This is the longest break she has ever taken from pitching. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
