Hitters, it not always something wrong with your swing if you’re not hitting. Instead of thinking all about your mechanics in the box, try focusing on..
1. Timing
2. Pitch Selection
3. Squaring up the ball and hitting it hard somewhere. My opinion of course... 🤷🏼♂️
1/2 Blaze kids putting some work in last couple days! Really cool getting to work with some GREAT kids! I’m not a few of these kids personal hitting coach, but if they take away just 1 thing that helps them,
Hotel coordinator for my team starting booking hotels for summer. Stay to play is for the birds! Why not get some of us top organizations together and put tourneys on and NO stay to play! 3/4 tournaments the rest of the time train, train, train!! Let’s make it about the kids!! 👇🏼
Seeing TD’s posting about Tournaments for August!! 🤦🏼♂️🤯 PSA and coaches, it’s ok to take a break and let the kids heal mentally and physically! Geez!!
First time back in the lab in a while since Corona getting some hacks in with some Blaze kids! Kids worked hard and put in some good work!

🗣PSA: Pls stop telling kids they are a PO when they can freaking hit! 🙄 If a kid can hit, let her hit! She’s doing her job, she will be in MY lineup. My 2 cents… 🤷🏼♂️
23’s! Please understand that all schools are on their own timeline. Some may be ready to offer; for others it’s just the beginning of getting to know you. Be patient, ask questions, don’t feel pressured to make a decision. Good luck and excited for you all!

When a parent reaches out looking for a team for her kid and all is said is how she’s the BEST on the team, not sure why her old coach doesn’t play her here, or bats her here... But not one thing said about how she’s a GREAT teammate... Yeah my rosters full... ✌🏼
Was told I was being to hard on Lexa bc I make her carry her on bag and I left it by fence and made her go back and get it after she wanted me to carry it. 🤦🏼♂️🤣 She might not always get a hit, play well but she’s damn sure going to be responsible for her stuff. ✌🏼
Man what a fun 3 days it was with these studs! TC State Champs!! Went undefeated scoring 76 runs and guving up 9 in 7 games! Lights out pitching, defense and kids absolutely crushing the ball!! Next up summer cup Friday!

#lexanicole
Man where does time go. I remember when she would get in the car and fall asleep asap and now she’s not stop talking and wanting to take selfies, but I love it bc I know I’m a blink of an eye she will be grown! Love our hour 20 min rides home from practice.

Had a parent of a 6th grader ask me what they need to do to get college looks. 🤦🏼♂️. My response... Nothing! Focus on development, being a great teammate and most importantly HAVE FUN! For the love of God, she’s in the 6th grade!!

Love this kid! This girl and her team played and fought hard this weekend! Came up 2 runs short in the championship game! As you can see by the photo, she’s not happy with a 2nd place ring! (Not sure where she gets being so competitive from lol)! Her bat stayed 🔥!
#lexanicole
Rarely get to see this kid dressed in other than softball clothes lol. Might be a little favoritism here, but she sure cleans up well and is a beautiful little girl!

commit doing a nice job here on this off-speed not leaking on front side trying to go get it. She “sinks in” holds ground and is able to barrel it up for a line drive up the middle.

For us to be the BEST team that we can be, we have to all be bought in. It starts with the coach. But also falls on the players/leaders to get everyone else all in! Everyone knowing their role and doing their part for the bigger picture, THE TEAM!

On the way hone from practice today..
Lexa: Daddy, when one of my teammates got sad today bc she didn’t hit the ball I told her it’s ok, you will get it next time. Being on a team dad is about being a good teammate and helping my friends. 👏🏼🙌.

This kid! First, I swear on my life I didn’t put her up to this! I get on my computer and this is what I found! Think she pays attention a little...
