New to forum. Got involved in coaching when daughter moved into minor league. The Tball coach had them stepping with right foot to throw right handed. I thought about it and got into coaching. While I had zero coaching experiance I at least knew some fundementals. Got daughters team minor league. We moved players around and had two pitchers (not DD) rotating. Second yr one pitcher (not dd) used her all games moved players around. First yr LL assisted DD team did what HC and AC wanted and started on DD pitching for the nxt year. This yr I'm HC with AC. Both DD's pitch rotating them. Spent entire preseason everybody takes infeild then everbody goes to out field. Season starts have pretty much stuck with main infield pulling in here and there. My team drops in skill pretty quick. A lot of the less skilled have a lot heart so they are the ones getting moved in. My take is if they can handle infield I let them get thier chance. I am in no way putting a child in the infield if they can't a least protect themselves as all the teams have one or two that can hit and hit hard. In my opion the worst thing that can happen is a child getting beaned and develope a fear they will never get over and not wanting to play again. Never had any complaints directly on rec team. Never heard of any benind back. It may help that my wife says I have a hateful look that comes naturally. But I have yet to find a girl afraid of me and most relish in cutting up and having fun with me. First meeting made point of what and how I would be doing things and if you have questions feel free to ask but I had goals that is what we would do.
