  • If you didn't notice, the girls in the background. He's a coach. Most coaches I had in junior high school and high school had tremendous knowledge of most sports in general. The reason they are coaching in the first place. Your comment is out of place and laced with ignorance.

  • Wrong...softball and hardball can both be recreational or competitive. There are many levels to softball as there probably is with baseball. There is house ball (recreational), rep "B" ball (a bit more competitive), and rep "A" ball (very competitive). Women can get softball scholarships to Universities just as guys can for hardball. And...although not as popular, there is a pro league for softball players as well. Make sure you know your facts first before you make your comments.

  • @IRock172 How is he gay? How can you tell he is gay? Unless you know him for sure,you don't know whether or not he's gay.Stop being a jackass.

  • @silliehilli STOP BRAGGING NO ONE GIVES A SHIT WHO YOU TAKE LESSONS FROM AND SHE IS A CATCHER SO ITS TOTALLY DIFFERENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • wrong very wrong.i take lessons from a world champion, callista balko (university of arizona, cought for tayrne mowwatt) and she told me never squish the ball. its always foot should go on tip toes. and pitching, feet always have to be on the ruber when starting. get it straight man!

  • im 17 and I can throw much faster than that although that is a normal speed that I see most woman throwing and their accuracy was pretty good...

  • no it didnt it was invented as a means to play baseball during the winter and was called indoor baseball

  • I find making games out of drills make things more fun. Also getting third party instructing is also a good idea because kids do tend to listen when it is not their parents. Good luck and I wich you well.

  • Softball actually came before baseball, thought it is not the softball game as we know it today
