    How to stop walk-athon in 10u?

    Or you could come up here to Southern Maine where I assistant coach. The 10u Rec League has lots of acceptable teams with decent pitching. There's enough good pitching to absorb the walkathon innings created by the kids who are just learning or even trying pitching for the first time. Games are...

    Hi everyone. I'm still trying to find a used Queen of the Hill for my DD. If you have one that you're no longer using, let me know. Thanks in advance. --Joe

    New member and dad of a dedicated 10u

    Ah! Thanks for clearing that up. I figured it was something daughter or daughter something. I was just lost on the other "D" - thinking it was probably a softball term. Dear and Darling is much more pleasant. My daughter's nickname is CC. So, she is now CC my DD.

    Things College Softball Announcers Can Quit Saying 2022 Edition

    I agree. Vin Scully was top notch. Here in newengland we still have one of the great radio announcers. Red Sox - Joe Castiglione (not sure I spelled that correctly). Simple Play by play with baseball history and trivia mixed in at just the right amount. If you happen to tune in mid inning, you...

    Should my Daughter stay playing up or play with her age/grade?

    Also, it may not be an either/or proposition. My daughter plays primarily 10u and is asked to pitch in the next level (majors) for some of their games. Works out to be the best of both worlds. Again, talk to the coach(s).

    Should my Daughter stay playing up or play with her age/grade?

    The above posts that ask "Is she having fun?" are on the money. That's the ultimate motivator for kids. As to the playing time, quality of play time may trump actual play time. That's a judgement call for you and your daughter to decide. Don't be afraid to respectfully talk to your daughter and...

    Things College Softball Announcers Can Quit Saying 2022 Edition

    Less is More. Almost all of the commentary can be done without. So much of it is little more than filler intended to avoid dead air. Personally, I wish they would just use a microphone to pick up the sound of the field and leave it at that. An occasional commentary during an unusual situation...

    New member and dad of a dedicated 10u

    Hi, I'm a very proud father of a very dedicated 10u player who is going into her 3rd year of softball. She primarily pitches, but will play anywhere with a smile. She practices 5 to 7 times a week - asking me to catch for her, pitch to her, throw her pop flies etc. Warning: proud dad bragging...
