I try to keep my mindset to the current season; it is easier here in Georgia because we play high school softball in the fall. I read and stay current by this and other message boards on all forms, all year long, but try to keep my mind focused on one rule set at a time.

My primary training and background is ASA, so I fall back to that naturally. From January until the end of April, or so, I try to stay in NCAA mode, and only revert to ASA when doing ASA. I refocus on ASA and reread and update myself from May to July (into August if I have an ASA JO National). From July to October, I switch to NFHS mode.
