    The catching camp

    I don’t know why I waited to buy this superb ebook. I‘ve told people for over ten years the best money I ever spent on softball was buying the their catching clinic DVD. This is a steal at $199. My daughter worked with Jay Weaver 3 times. The first time was just before she turned nine at...

    Hitting a pitch that bounced

    Fun from 10u fall ball rec game with several players on both teams moving up from 8u that I umpired today. In this league, in 10u, the coach comes in to pitch after three walks in an inning. The coach pitches the ball short of the plate. It bounces, and the batter swings and hits the ball. I...

    Coach MSU rules- height of pitch

    I'm not going to question the umpire unless I see the play. Especially in 8u and 10u pitches occasionally come with a high arc resembling a slow pitch trajectory. I don't like calling them strikes, but occasionally they catch enough of the back half of the strike zone you have to call them...

    Umpire chuckle of the day

    10u rec league game. Inside pitch, hits player on hands, not over plate. Replay in my mind to make sure it hit the hands, not the bat. me: “Dead Ball! Take your base!” parent behind me “Aren’t the hands part of the bat?” me to my partner in between innings, “Funny, none of the bats I’ve...

    High Level Throwing Socal April 27-30, May 5th-7th

    https://highlevelthrowing.com/seminars/ Highly recommend Austin's clinic. After my DD finished her 2nd year 8u All-Star season I visited my sister in New England and took my DD to be checked out by Austin because several coaches were worried that since she didn't throw like USA softball was...
