Been saying this for a long time….

Throwing is a skill—and honestly, one of the most under taught in softball. I’ve been coaching softball for a decade now, and it still surprises me how little time is spent actually developing throwing. We expect clean, accurate throws in games, but don’t train it with any real…

Agreed! Most of those modalities are bandaids at best, some IMO, are a complete waste. Especially if they are done instead of getting in the weight room and training.

The vast majority of the time, your [insert muscle/body part] tightness is not a flexibility/mobility issue. It’s a weakness and exceeding tissue capacity issue. The tightness is communication from the body that you are currently red-lining the capacity of the tissue to handle…

Ha! The financial backer for most teams is the “B, C, and sometimes D” team funding the “National” team!

Gerry Glasco at Texas Tech is playing the travelball coaching game against these College Coaches & winning… Get a backer & buy the best team. Btw if you didn’t know - this is happening in travelball too 👀

This is one of the top things to address in with our softball players!

Changing your mindset from “Putting the ball in play” to “I’m going to do damage” Can clean up movement and timing issues faster than any drill can.



Remember! The name on the back of your jersey is why you get to the level of play you want to, not the one on the front. Most will try to convince you otherwise but there are 168 hours in the week. YOU decide how to use those 168!


Nah, drop the $1000+, it will fix all!

99% of the time, you don't need: • New bat • New shoes • New travel team You need to practice consistently 6 days a week for 6 months.

In youth sports (as in life), parents must be comfortable saying “no.” If you aren't comfortable saying no, find a coach who'll say no for you. If you have a coach who doesn't like you saying no, find a new team. You can't say yes to every team, tournament, showcase, or lesson.


We should really switch the term “overuse” injury to “over-competing” injury. Most injuries are a result of simply playing too many games and too many sports at the same exact time.

Travel ball did it again. Another family paying $3,000 to have their kid on the B Team so they can then pay a few thousand bucks a weekend to travel out of state to play teams form the very state they just came from so that “college coaches” can see their 12 year old compete.…

Research shows that if coaches are overly critical and have a "negative appraisal" post-game, testosterone levels will drop and it will negatively impacts the next game performance.

Has anyone used Trackman for softball? I’ve given Rapsodo 5 years of my life and I can’t do it anymore. Can anyone verify the data is accurate? It looks about right but I’m by no means an expert.

Why does 'joysticking' coaching persist in youth sports despite all the education out there? 🚨This outdated approach - where coaches micromanage every move hurts young children. It’s not beneficial because it: 1. 🛑 Stifles creativity & decision-making skills. 2. 😟 Lowers…
