The more things change...

[crystlemc]

I've been out of the softball world and off this forum for 5 or 6 years now. It's kind of nice to see that some of the old timers are still here. The topics all look familiar. I guess it's true that the more things change, the more they stay the same. I'm hoping my granddaughter takes up the sport

Does she pitch? We recruit early in this sport.......

Not a chance! Went through that with my '99. Waaaay too stressful. I'm hoping we can direct her toward the outfield...lol.

I just started the pitching lessons thing this week and my first student, new to me, was here looking for a new instructor. Apparently her instructor she's been with for 4 years just had a baby and told them she wouldn't be doing it anymore. She's a college graduate and from what I could see has done a wonderful job showing this kid all the right things. There are so many self-proclaimed "Experts" out there taking people's money, This instructor doesn't appear to be one of them.

it's a shame to see a young lady that really seemed to know what's she was doing leave the instruction ranks. I get it. I understand it. I'm happy for her.

Still sad to see life take such a talent away from the game.

I wonder if her daughter pitches?
