    Melissa Brown asked:

    I am unsure about what decision to make for my daughter who just turned 11 two weeks ago and who a pitcher on a 12u fastpitch softball team

    Crystal’s answer:

    If she can hang with the team both in maturity and skill I say let her go. It sounds like she takes pride in her performance and if she isn't challenged her performance may suffer.

    Cameryn Mammenga asked:

    if the catcher leaves home for some reason, who would you want to cover the base??

    Crystal’s answer:

    I played softball in high school and I dont ever remember the 1st baseman covering home. It was always the pitcher. I teach my 8u team to have the pitcher cover. It doesnt seem logical to have the 1st baseman run all the way up there when the pitcher i... Continue reading »

    Monte G. Mc Kee asked:

    What would you do with a allstar coach tah constantly puts her players down and never praises them?

    Crystal’s answer:

    I'm an 8u all-star coach myself and I can say from personal experience - its very frustrating. I have a group of girls from 4 different teams that have been taught, or in some cases, not taught at different levels.

    While I feel for the coach, I don... Continue reading »

    Cynthia Bush (Kaeli) asked:

    I need advice for our batting order (softball 8U). 3 Strong batters, 4 middle, and 4 weak..help!

    Crystal’s answer:

    I played around with mine a lot before I found a good combination. What I found worked best was spacing out my weaker batters. I would put them at the 3 or 4 spot and then again at the 6 or 7 spot and then again towards the bottom. It helped to avoid a... Continue reading »

    Mauvelene K. Mccoy asked:

    Does anyone have any good halftime routine ideas for 7and 8 year old youth cheerleaders

    Crystal’s answer:

    Last year we did a mix to a bunch of Hannah Montana songs. She has the new Hoedown Throwdown and Ice Cream Freeze songs that I plan to use this year. They are both line dances of sorts so its easy for the kids to pick up on.
