Everyone,
If you're in the area, or you could be in the area, get down to Ft Meyers Florida this weekend. There's a mid-winter men's fastpitch tournament this weekend featuring some of the top teams in the game. While the majority of teams and players won't be in mid-season form, a lot...

I began thinking of this when posting on the Dropball drills thread. I think one of the most challenging parts of coaching pitchers isn't what we think of first when choosing what the ACTUAL hardest part of teaching pitching is. It's more subtle in some ways. In 2 words: Peer pressure...
Everyone,
In the past, I've wrote on here and other places that so many here love softball. In fact, I have not met too many dad's with baseball backgrounds that don't ultimately say they enjoy softball more than baseball. And how many people don't even know there's a USA boys team for...
I got a note from RADcatcher that she was leaving the forum and if I need to contact her, she sent me her private email. She vowed not to come back here again. Although I do hope she changes her mind.
But this begs the question: who pissed her off so bad that she left and what was it about??
Has anyone ever had a student release the ball so far away from their body? Backstory: this is a brand new student with me, Sunday was the 2nd time I saw her. I've never seen anything like it. Before anyone asks, she does not have anything out of the ordinary at the top of the arm...
For the first time in a generation, the USA boy's fastpitch team is one of the best in the world. This is thanks to Cody Gibbins of Minnesota, who is arguably the top pitcher in the world for 18u boys. The USA team beat reigning champs Argentina 2-1 last night in an epic game, Cody had...
Everyone can watch the ISC men's world championship on YouTube starting yesterday. So to "Softball Premier TV" on YouTube, you'll see live games and archived games. My old team, NY Gremlins are ranked #1 and have only a single loss all season, which was the first game of the year...
For anyone interested, if you go to the YouTube channel "Softball Premier TV" there's some men's FP games on nearly every weekend, and there's a large archive of old games. The world's #1 team, NY Gremlins, are featured this weekend at the Ashland Ohio tournament, currently being shown on...

Gang, Here's your big chance.
A friend of mine is posting a need for a pitcher over 60 yrs old for his team for the ASA Nationals. There is also 55 and over, and 50 and over (50's have multiple locations and tournaments). Now, before anyone poo-poo's this idea immediately, These...
small soapbox rant here, disregard if you don't like those! I got a message today from a coach who has several of my students on his team. They are a travel ball team class C, the lowest classification I know of. Basically, one step above rec ball. In fact, an argument could be made they...
Gang, I'm sorry to do this on the forum but someone from here contacted me a while ago who was from Oklahoma. He asked about bringing his daughter to me but, I cannot find the email. I'm going to be doing lessons in OKC at the end of the month, I am hoping the guy who contacted me will see...
Got to Facebook, search NY Gremlins Fastpitch team, they are streaming games with multiple cameras and announcers for the Winter Classic tournament. World #1 pitcher Huemel Mata is pitching for the Lumberkings team.
If your favorite college game is a blowout and you don't expect your NFL team to do any better tomorrow, give a thought to checking out the Softball New Zealand YouTube page. There's a 6 team international tournament being played in Palmerston North New Zealand, ahead of next week's WBSC...
Bill Hillhouse will be at our facility giving Private Lessons next weekend. He will be giving lessons for Pitchers and/or simulating college level pitching for Hitters. If you want to reserve a spot, or if you have any questions, please email krupkfastpitch@gmail.com
Deadline for sign up is this...
RAD, you asked on the other thread about the number of teams left. Below is a link to a movie that was made in between 1995-96, "Fastpitch The Movie". If you've never seen it, it's highly entertaining but there is a few moments of off color language, if that offends anyone. This...
Facebook memory from 11 years ago today, pitching for a French team in the European cup. Be honest, how many here even knew they had fastpitch softball in France, let alone men's fastpitch softball????? This game was the first of the tournament vs. Rome Italy, I cannot remember if we...
