I'd like to thank Bear for allowing me to make the following post.......

Coaches--I've created a new website for coaches, trainers, and sport performance specialists. It's called CoachBook. It's like Facebook, but it's designed to be a place where sport professionals can interact with each other and promote their teams, website, services, and products. You can create your own profile where you can post photos, videos, schedules, and documents such as handouts or registration forms. You can also add your upcoming events such as tournaments. You can do a lot of great stuff. There is also a discussion area, job board, and a store.

Everything is still in the early stages, but I've gotten a few big name coaches to sign up. Check it out and lemme know what you think.......remember it's designed so that you can promote yourself and your team!! CoachBook - www.coachbook.ning.com

For anyone who missed the radio broadcast, the link to the podcast is below. The show lasted about an hour and I think we talked about softball more than we talked about the website!

We have some new features at CoachBook: Classified Ads, updated Job Board, Recruiting forum for coaches, and live interactive broadcasts. First broadcast is Monday Dec. 15th at 8pm EST. Not sure what my topic will be that night--it will probably be pretty random since it is my first time. I'll be taking live callers and you can participate in interactive chat during the show as well!

Great! We play at 5 pm. Been requiring all the players to bunt/slap for a few weeks to improve execution in that phase. May let them loose a bit tomorrow. Look forward to meeting you in person.
