    Softball skill & strength training while recovering from a tibia stress fracture

    For anyone else's DD that's gone through the same thing - any recommendations for a softball strength program or progression that can be done while one leg is on the mend? We've been adapting a number of her existing drills by kneeling or eliminating some of the movements, but I was wondering if...

    HS Coach asking my DD slapper to train slappers during games

    Hey, Hopefully, I'm not the only one that thinks this is strange. The old coach of our HS team left in February and we got a new coach just a week before tryouts. 53 girls tried out, no cuts, but with 9 returning seniors, no chance for my DD to make varsity. During tryouts, she slapped, was put...

    Elbow guard/sleeve for sliding on turf?

    Hello - any recommendations for elbow protection while sliding on turf? We’ve been playing indoors for a bit and my DD’s elbow has gotten some road rash. I’m thinking a football compression sleeve, but curious about what others use. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tips for finding a team that wants a slapper

    Hello, DD is a 2nd year 12U player. She’s a lefty and can get on base often. She’s been working on her slapping since she saw it while she was a 10U. She slaps in school/rec games (14U rules) from the lead off spot as her default. We’re on a good b-level travel team and we can win with our...

    Anyone have experience with Dick’s Sporting Goods bat insurance vs Easton’s warranty replacement?

    Hey, It finally happened, my DD’s Ghost cracked after 8 months. Her grandparents got the bat as a gift and bought the No Sweat protection policy at checkout. Has anyone had any experiences using that service? From what I read online they don’t mention anything specifically about bat coverage...

    My DD lost her 4 seam spin after a bike crash

    Hello, I hope I can get some ideas from the group here. My DD had a crash on her MTB and landed on her right side at the end of the summer season. Nothing was broken and she did her PT. During fall ball, her fastball has become a screwball/bullet now. We’re going to head back to fundamentals...
