I'll second Wade on this one. Kitchen timer on fence; count up, count down, time of day, and it beeps. Coaches can look at it when they change sides. Those of us with hi freq hearing loss won't hear it, but all those younger ears along the fence will let you know.

Other than that, great. Preset the time limit.. press the memory button and you are off.. also uses 1AA battery, no weird batteries. Oh, mine did not hold up well in the rain.. it did recover, but failed during the rain, luckily I have a back up digital stop watch that is on my water bottle holder... so was no problem. I cant see wearing a watch on your mask (someone recommended this, never heard of it before).. if a ball hits that and it shatters into your face or a girls face, you are in a heap of trouble.

I've seen timers on the fence hit and broken. My daughter fouled one off into such a timer last July, but I think she only broke the clip (i.e. the timer still functioned) It wasn't the first I've seen that happen to.
BTW, the softball isn't 12 sq inches. The surface area would be 45.84 square inches for a 12 linear inch diameter ball. The cross section would be 11.46 square inches (which is a lot closer to 12 inches than I thought it would be before I did the math).
