    NCAA Slapper rules are unfair

    Decided to start a new thread for this after reading a recent thread on rules for slappers and I was surprised nobody brought this up. (Full disclosure my DD is a college freshman slapper) What is the possible rational for the college rule that states a slapper is considered out of the box if...

    Guest Pitcher needed for 16u Alliance Tier 1 Nationals

    Just found out a pitcher from DD's team has a likely stress fracture in her elbow. Kind of late notice but if anyone has a 16u eligible DD who would be interested in guest playing in a great tournament against top competition with tons of college coaches watching PM me. Tournament runs from July...

    September 1 for Class of 2022

    Thought I would start a thread for people to share information about September 1 for the 2022 class. Most parents have not been through this process as the September 1 rule change started with the class of 2021 and nobody has been through the process during a pandemic leading to an NCAA dead...

    Any info on NCAA dead period extension

    I thought the decision was due to be released today but could only find this article that appears to be specific to basketball. I felt all along as soon as the SEC cancelled all camps through July 31 that the dead period would also be extended until then. I just didn't see a way the SEC would...

    Colorado IDT and Fireworks plans

    Was hoping to get a sense from forum members here regarding plans for the 4th of July Colorado showcases. Specifically coaches and parents from 16u teams as this is the prime recruiting event of the summer. We are from the Northeast and generally have significant travel for major events. DD's...

    10u dd converted lefty

    Dd was converted to lefty over the winter with the idea that long term she may wind up as a slapper but wanted her to learn how to hit lefty as well. She has worked hard and come a long way but still has a long way to go. This is a recent game swing. What areas would you work on first? We...

    How much backswing is too much?

    I am in the process of converting my DD from HE to IR. After reading Java's drive mechanics and Boardmembers stickies we are starting over completely. One question I have is about back swing. My DD has very long arms with very flexible shoulders. The picture below is from this spring when she...

    Trying to convert DD to IR

    DD is a 10u player that has only been taught HE. Unfortunately I have not been able to find any local PC who teaches IR so I am trying to teach her using the information on this board. We have been using boardmember's drills to have IR catches for a few weeks. Took a video of her first attempt...
