    Target if space is on giving 35ft

    Hi….so now we are beginning the transition to 12u My turf mound set up in the basement goes 35 feet mound right to edge of wall. I have a pitching backstop that I can raise higher to accommodate for the missing 5 feet. Should I just move it up a foot or 3? TIA Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It was handled respectfully and we are moving on to a different instructor. Frustrating because it is a good facility but I probably should have been more involved upfront and had a second set of eyes earlier, but they also didn't do a good job either. I'm just trying to do the best thing for my...

    Thanks. These are three recent vids it’s not always like that. Maybe I’ll catch her tonight so her main instructor can get more technical on the mound with her as someone suggested. Just thought she was turning a corner recently has pitched well in her last few games really cutting down the...

    Thank you. I did reach out a few this morning even if just for a second opinion or another set of eyes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I don't wear panties, no need to project but thank you for taking the time to comment.

    What purpose would that serve? They've been around for many years and trained many successful pitchers and sent off to competitive college programs..loads of them. Respectfully, sounds like we are getting into ideology here, which isn't what I'm looking for.

    They can, they put many kids into colleges. I don't know the name of it specifically sorry.

    I believe, ultimately she's at the right place (they are well-regarded and have the history to back it up), just feel like maybe something isn't clicking. All instructors are trained in the same method but I get what you are saying (and they are selective about who they hire). We have a lesson...

    Well this is sad to hear this is at a very well-regarded training facility in my area. She’s worked with a few different instructors, former d1 pitchers with loads of accolades. I know the latter doesn’t mean they are great coaches but like I said this is at a really well-regarded facility in my...

    Not sure if I got the right angle but here is my 11th old DD. She’s been training for about 11 months 70 or so private lessons I thought she’d be further along by now in terms of consistency but not sure. Velocity is 38-40 To me it seems like she is landing on her heel and bending her knee...

    Severs Protocol

    Gotcha...sounds like I shouldn't ice before either...I didn't think to because it seems counterintuitive....maybe we'll stretch with some light heat applied to the area + calf to get the whole area loose.

    Severs Protocol

    No ortho yet, no imaging either. I will though, initially I figured since it doesn't bother her anywhere else it must be something with the shoes or her specific activity on the mound as she does other things that should bother her heel that are more impactful than pitching but makes sense to be...

    Severs Protocol

    Did you ice during games at all or in between games at tournaments?

    Severs Protocol

    So my 11 year old has really progressed in the 10-ish months from when she first started with her pitching lessons and now we are battling Severs. Her heel only seems to bother her when pitching. Didn't bother her last year. She has a school uniform and wears shoes with very little support and...

    Reasonable Expectations?

    last month or so she's been doing close to that during her training sessions. I think maybe we need to reinforce it at home too. I have a turf mound and 35ft in the basement so perhaps we need to go down there more frequently during the week. I would say on balance her ball to strike ratio...

    Reasonable Expectations?

    Thanks...I just mean consistently throwing strikes period. Like she might strike someone out and then walk a couple/few/or more kids, rinse and repeat...Those are not at 4-0 counts all the time mind you (sometimes they are) Maybe a better way to say it is I'm concerned about her ball to strike...

    Reasonable Expectations?

    10u pitcher (just turned 11 year old) starting training last July. Pretty consistent at least 1x a week usually 2-3 a week sometimes 4. Training at very well-regarding facility nearby with quality instructions who have all pitched/coached at the highest levels. Not particularly big kid but...
