    In defense of HS ball

    We live in "The New World". We, as a country, were not set in our "club" ways like the rest of the world because there were not enough communities large enough back then to support competitive club teams. As the country grew someone figured out that the best concentration of young adults...

    Pitcher Receving Signals

    Not true. The pitcher does not have to receive signals from the catcher, but must simulate receiving a signal from the catcher for each pitch. The pitcher can receive the signal while off of the pitching plate, toe the pitching plate, simulate receiving a signal from the catcher, then throw...

    Strike zone question

    The umpire does not call a strike because a batter jumps back. The umpire calls a strike because it is a strike in their opinion.

    "Play softball", Dad said...

    Ouchie! Help her out dad. Buy a couple of Incrediballs, take her out in the back yard, and work with her on how to catch and field a ball.

    Waiting, Waiting, and Waiting some more....

    You must be in HR and work for a reputable company. The majority of youth coaches are not professionals. They talk a big game and very rarely deliver. They are like the used car salesmen at many "Buy Here, Pay Here" lots. They say want you want to hear to avoid questions. The trick is...

    Waiting, Waiting, and Waiting some more....

    CMMom.....you're looking at this all wrong. Don't let it stress you. Never wait on coaches. I don't care what level your dd is. Your dd has two levels. The level you think she is and the level the coaches think she is. Her level is the level the coaches think she is. Your dd is a catcher...

    Differential Equations and Linear Algebra

    Maybe you're an old timer like me. They called it Vector and Matrix Algebra. 3D Euclidean Space, Matrix Theory, Subspaces, Vectory Spaces, blah blah blah......... Lol....it was classes like this that made me switch from EE to Business Admin.

    It must be an optical illusion. The leg guards look so wide on your dd in the pics.

    Now what?

    Firstly, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! Secondly, what happens next depends on a bunch of things, including her graduation year, and college athletic level (D-I,II,III,NAIA, JUCO, etc.),

    catchers helmets

    I've decided to waste my precious time....lol Fielding masks are an option as you state. They are much different than catchers masks. Why even have fielders masks? Make everyone wear catchers masks. They're more protective. Fielding masks don't cover the head....just the face. Let's make...

    catchers helmets

    Greenie Meanie! It's not BS. Back in the day I would message Dave frequently on another board. We had great conversations. Read my post carefully. I did not mean liability in the sense of legality. I state that it had to do with the overall level of clientele at camps and purchasing DVD's...

    catchers helmets

    That's right, it's a choice, and it's legal.....but IMO it's only a choice at the advanced level....not mandatory.

    catchers helmets

    Read my post correctly. I don't say that catchers should toss their mask. I say to teach "Keep The Mask On At All Times" is a viable option. I say (at an advanced level) that the mask only comes off on straight up high pop-ups......if you choose that option. The mask stays on at all other...

    Maddie's New Legs

    I'm still stunned that All-Star thinks women don't grow beyond 5 feet tall. They have a great product. They need to re-think the measurements of the adult female........
