Watching a game today, and the catchers were playing extremely deep away from home plate. They were at least 3 - 4 feet away from the back side of Home Plate. It was two 10 under girl teams playing and maybe the age made a difference with how deep the catchers were playing.
When I was coaching and working with Catchers I always taught them (Get so close to the hitter that you can touch her knee). Most adjustments were based on the batter stance.
Is this normal depth for Catchers now in Fastpitch Softball?
