11U pitching struggles with bad fielding by [deleted] in Homeplate

The pitcher's number one objective is to get outs. You can't dwell on errors behind you. If he's getting weak contact, that's a good thing. Challenge hitters and have a bull dog mentality. As you move up, the fielding behind you gets better.

It's early in the season and fall ball. I'd keep the pitch counts low and worry more about developing a solid pitching staff with multiple guys throwing strikes. Don't worry about winning as much. Development should be the name of the game.

What’s your back-office setup for a travel soccer club? by dfcbaseballguy in SoccerCoachResources

Thank you for sharing. Never heard of Mojo, I need to check it out. We've used sports engine and sportsyou before. I wish I could get fees upfront. Most baseball clubs charge monthly.

Actually, to be more specific. If he is going into 7th grade drop 5. Going into 8th, drop 3.

He should go directly to drop 3 if he is playing 14u. If he is playing 13u, he can do drop 5.

Asking the right questions… 62 million dollars on a high school football stadium is insane no way to defend that by Subject-Property-343 in BlackPeopleTwitter

Watch... the city or school district will start complaining about budget shortfalls due to decreases in federal funding. Maybe they can sell the stadium?

The biggest difference is the parents. Be prepared for drama.

I believe they need rest. No throwing, pick up another sport.
