Uh oh... Maybe my source wasn't correct, then.

He's called for so many different orgs, so I have to cut him some slack.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

Now I am going to have to ask..what about USSSA? My DD played 90% Usssa last year and her coaches told her to make sure you pulled the bat back if its a ball. This year she is on a different team that plays 90% ASA and she doesn't ahve to pull the bat back. Should I just keep telling her to pull it back so if we play PONY/USSSA she is used to it?

Not sure about USSSA, but in PONY she is not required to pull the bat back.

Is she planning on playing softball in college? In NCAA, they need to pull the bat back. If she is planning on playing in college, it would be good to get in the habit. Dave

Is she planning on playing softball in High School? In NFHS, they need to pull the bat back. If she is planning on playing in High School, it would be good to get in the habit.

Why? Would you expect a player or coach to do the same?

This is what causes problems and confuses players. Okay, so that isn't so unusual, but you get my point.
