Looking for some suggestions on a Batting coach.

Bump :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o

definitely come on out.. I can tell you from experience, this team has been a good fit for us and our child's goals. Fundamentals and team first attitude.

Looking forward to these try outs. This is a good solid young team who has continued grow and sharpen their skills. Placing second back to back in the last two tourneys shows this team has the talent and promise to go farther.

:) :) :) :) :) :) :)

:)    ;D

Do you still have the Bat? My daughter grew out of hers and wants to stay with the same model. thanks..

A huge congratulations to the 10u Team.. Way to go!!

congratulations to Beaumont Blast and Unleeshed!!!  Glad to see you brought it!!!  [glow=red,2,300]PEACE LOVE AND SOFTBALL[/glow]

[font=comic sans ms][size=10pt]I am also a parent of a GT Shocker player. I will be the first to tell you that she attended many practices from other teams in our area and she [glow=red,2,300]CHOSE the GT Shockers [/glow] based on their work ethic, their drive to continue to improve and coaches who expect the best from them everytime they step on the field. Even though my daughter is only 11 She adores Craig and Trout. She likes what they stand for!! She wants someone to push her to be a better player, her motto is never settle for less than perfect. She can't wait until she is old enough to play for Craig or Trout.. Anyone who feels it is necessary to post petty comments in a public forum is childish and just plain rude. HOTTESTBATS if you have an issue with Craig then please feel free to speak with him face to face or in a private message. Those of us whose daughters put their heart, sweat and tears into every game deserve an "Atta Girl" no matter what they place or where they play. There is no need to spit your venom here attempting or unattentionly downgrading a well needed congratulations with a pot shot at Craig or this organization.. I know many of the girls on the GT 01 team. We played with several of them before my daughter had to move up and those girls deserve every bit of congratulations for their hard work without a anonymous person making a snarky comment no matter who it was aimed at. You may not have directed your comment towards the girls directly but Craig is a part of our organization and leaves a sour taste none the less. Hottestbats I will give you one bit of friendly advice  :) ... if you profess to keep your name out of the public forum to save your "granddaughter" any consequences, backlash (or embarrassment) perhaps just keeping these types comments quiet would be simpler. I am sure your granddaughter may know many of these talented young ladies and share a common love for the game... I am sure your granddaughter puts in as much hard work, plays as well as these girls do and is proud to say she plays for (insert team name here) As an organizaton, as a parent and a daughter who is a player we are proud of the Shocker name, no need to get over anything..  Every softball family knows you congratulate your child for doing her best (win or lose) and push her to do better when she doesn't (win or lose).. hottestbats, as the saying goes it's all......[/size][/font] [glow=red,2,300]PEACE LOVE AND SOFTBALL!!![/glow]

Silsbee all the way.. Lumberton will be Hearing [b]#4 Coy Bird [/b] name alot from the announcer.. :-) 

Will there be anymore try outs offered or is the team full up? First year 12u? also where will the team be based from? Thanks

Congratulations 14u Young guns.. Glad to see the talent in SETX representing our area so well.. Best of luck on your next one.. Hope your success continues.

verklempt is the acutal spelling.. Means to be overcome with emotion, I believe it is yiddish, When i hear it I always think of the Saturday night live skit with Mike Meyers as a jewish mother.. Youtube it.. LOL 

I want to give some much deserved Accolades to the 10u OOC.. The ladies participated in the Splendora USFA 2nd annual warm up for the World Series.. These girls played 4 games on Saturday and 6 games (11 hours straight) in 95+ degree weather on Sunday.. They Battled back from the Loser Bracket all the way to the Championship game. With hearts, spirit and competivness as big as Texas they gave every ounce of everything they had each game. The Championship game put the [b]OOC[/b] up against the Miken Stingerz and we fought hard..The girls were full of dirt, sweat and grit but In the end we walked away with 2nd place.. The Stingerz fought for their win, they had to earn it cause OOC wasn't gonna give it away.. with a 2-1 loss for OOC the girls showed them they had as much fight in them as the first game of the day!!! I am so proud of the 10u OOC ladies.. I don't know many Adults who could play 11 hours of softball in that heat and give everything they have with every pitch, every swing of the bat and every run of the bases!!   and a big hats off to the Miken Stingers.. They played a good ballgame!!  We'll get you next time!! LOL Let's hear it SETX... [b]GOOD JOB OOC!! [/b]  I am so proud of you.. [

My daughter participated in this camp this year. She thoroghly enjoyed everyday and came away learning alot and reinforcing the skills she already had. I hope to see this camp again next year. Thanks for putting on an informative and skill building adventure for the Girls of SETX!!!

[quote name="Raider9900" post="991497" timestamp="1301680867"] 01sNanan, Sorry if I'm misreading this, but your pride in your team makes your post appear to read somewhat disrespectful to the players of the teams that earned the places they got in the tournament.   In my book, there's only one correct way to say you played in the "championship game" - - actually get there!    So I feel compelled to stick up for my OOC girls of half 9 and half 10 year olds because they unquestionably earned the right to be in the "championship game".  They have been working hard for this.  And they handidly swept the winners bracket by scoring 31 runs for, and only allowed 5 against.  I think people saw - they will flat out hit the ball! And if you were there for the championship game (your score is completely inaccurrate by the way) you know what happened immediately before the game started - not making excuses - but the kids heads were clearly with their teammate that got carted off to the hospital (fractured cheekbone & nose), and it took them the 1st inning to get the game face back on (something we hope they learned from - mental part of the game).  The remaining innings was a 2-1 game.  We will search for the Wrath at upcoming tourneys so we can play them again.  The Wrath is a good ball club and we will welcome another opportunity. OOC is thankful for all the many, many calls/emails/texts we've gotten from folks asking how our 1st baseman was doing.  I know her parents appreciated the thoughts as well.  The softball family in the area really came out this past week from multiple concerned coaches and others from the other teams.  Although some scary injuries, she is doing quite well all things considered - this kid is as tough as they come. Bottom line - Houston West U Wrath deserved to win 1st, Out Of Control deserved to win 2nd, and Orange Crush deserved to win 3rd.  And there was lots of good ball to watch this weekend along the way by every team at the tourney. [/quote] Agreed,

I could not have been prouder of my OOC Girls. They showed the skills and [i][b]EXCELLENT coaching [/b] [/i] they have aquired. For a young team they have really came together and played well. Great things are ahead of them. [size=16pt][color=#151b8d][b]Let's GO CONTROL[/b][/color][/size]
