Throughout this site you will find articles related to coaching fastpitch softball, softball training, softball equipment, and softball league strategies. I have dedicated this site to helping softball coaches of all age groups, whether it’s Youth Softball or High School Softball, develop their team into a WINNING team.

Here’s the good news, it’s pretty easy stuff. If you think coaching doesn’t make that big of a difference, then explain how a coach went 93-4-2 over a 5 year period in 8U fastpitch softball.

That’s an impressive record no matter what age you are coaching. And don’t think for a moment that it was talent that led to that record. I’m talking about a team that every year lost half of it’s players to promotion to the older age group and had to pick up 6 or 7 brand new players…typically girls that had never played the game. So how could this one coach pile up 7 straight 1st place finishes and compile a winning percentage of .960%?

It boils down to great coaching. That’s the only possible answer. As players get older it’s certainly true that talent can make a difference. But talent still has to be coached. An athletic player under a poor coach will never achieve her full potential. However, average talent can achieve superior levels under the guidance of a great coach.

I have now coached in over 650 girls fastpitch softball games and at levels from 8U beginning league softball to State Tournament medal rounds and most recently 7th place in Nationals. As a 12U team we won a Junior Varsity Invitational tournament (and run ruled 5 of our 7 opponents along the way). We are now taking the opportunity to play High School Varsity teams when the opportunity exists and currently we are 2-0. I only mention this so you know that not only have I been there, I’m there now. The information I will provide you with is relevant today.

I’ve separated this site into several categories: Offensive drills, Defensive drills, Softball Coaching Tools and Equipment Reviews, and Fastpitch Softball League information, Softball Pictures, Coaches Report, Helpful Stores & "Stuff" and Softball Links. So as my fans say to me...

"Go Get ‘em Coach!"

BRAND NEW: I have just added a new section called "Softball Manager". This section will focus on the off-the-field challenges of coaching fastpitch softball.
