Many of the decisions on Sept. 1 & shortly after will find their way into the transfer portal in the next few years. (right or wrong)
Your destination may look a lot different than the immediate horizon.
Work & trust in yourself.
Most important - Never quit.

We wondering why these kids are getting hurt & playing fatigued all the time .. I’m seeing these fall schedules with 7, 8 or 9 event weekends is absolutely mind boggling. Let them focus on recovery, ST&C, technical skill development, camps and visits !!
Rookie mistake, Coach.

Calling a travel softball ball team a family is very cringy .. it’s a TEAM - I’m not their dad .. I’m their Head Coach. Embrace whole person development and growth outside roles and norms of the family.. aka .. The Real World

Playing in Colorado is a blast!
Yes, HR’s are abundant - but, what I find so fun is a team is never out of it - runs can come so quick!
We have been the windshield & the bug..
Either way, come play in the thin air and you better buckle up!!

Athletes:
You are exactly (1) phone call, text or text response away from being on the immediate path to your desired destination.
The right choices and paths are blurry at times - But, they are there.

Recognizing undeveloped talent is a talent - Huge advantage for those in 🥎 who embrace and “know how” to apply a slightly modified “40-80 scale”
Recruit tools and develop!

Joined us this summer . No one knew who she was when she arrived. We immediately went to work TOGETHER. She did her job. We did ours.
Another outstanding example of what this program does!
Changing lives one graduation class, one athlete, and one family at a time!

As a TB Coach / Recruiting Coordinator, I work for the college programs as much as I work for my student athletes.
Relationships & “good credit” allow me to enable the recruiting process -
A “Needs Provider” connecting good humans to good humans ..
Relationships that win.

Proud of these amazing athletes.
No question we are the youngest team in 18u PGF Premier Nationals.. BUT, I can assure you if you recruit a kid from this team they WILL be tough as nails!
They are head strong and fearless -ready to compete and work for you!

In 🥎 - Catchers backing up 1st on ground balls .
1. 60 ft bases
2. Significantly less foul ground to ⚾️
3. C’s 90% of time out of position to back up
4. 80+ sprints in 4/6 games in 90+ heat.
5. How many balls get away Vs sprints completed to get 1 ball
ROI worth it?

It’s strange - travel coaches posting tryouts who say “all inquiries confidential” or “messages go right to XXX for privacy”
Are families held hostage? What am I missing? Fear from what? From who?
It’s not that big a deal, or as my daughter says, “it’s not that deep, bruh”

It’s amazing what happens when travel ball families surround themselves, and listen to the right people who have the young persons best interests at heart!
Find your mentors and advocates. Surround yourself with people who care about you. Work your ass off.
Easy day.

Number of pitchers negatively impacted by bad pitch callers? % of Catchers who call the game @ the college level? Why the huge gap in pitch calling by C’s & coach @ the college level?
With such a huge gap, why the heavy sentimental value on catchers calling pitches @ TB level?

Perplexing- Talented JR’s in high school wanting to play 16u. There is no 2nd year 18u. That is college. So
“playing up” is playing kids 1-12 months older than you - AVG of 6 months. This is not your own age group?
Didn’t you just play same kids before they went 18u for fall?

As a coach (travel, college, baseball/softball, etc) I don’t want to be “ranked”. Save the subjective quantitative opinion polls for others. Judge me and measure me by the quality of the young people that seek out and graduate from my program.

I thought the gym market was saturated .. that is until I really began to travel across this country over the past 10 years. Almost impossible to find an “old school bodybuilding dungeon” when traveling!!
They are out there. But, man! They are the very few and far between.

The
#1
factor ( in my experiences) in why kids are not recruited and/or under recruited
Lack of performance when under observation in a game setting.
Assuming the prep work is done:
Identification
Camp / Relationship
Expressed interest in program
Compatible academics

Is Technical Skill more important than Tactical Skill?
Are “ kinetic physical mechanics” more important than “Softball IQ” ?
In 🥎 who is more recruitable at 16 years old - A high softball IQ player who has average tools or a low IQ player with high ceiling tools ?

Try and out smart the game and the game going to remind you how it humbles and crumbles .... you ain't outsmarting this game.. regardless of what your ego tells you.

HS JR’s Playing 16u Part 2:
Is intentionally playing rosters with 40-70% 2027’s and 2028’s “playing down”?
🤔
HS JR’s playing 16u are choosing to play kids 1 to 2 YEARS younger than them & passing on playing kids 1-12 MONTHS older?
Is this a desirable mindset to recruit?
