Another thing softball players say In the middle of winter after taking a break because of weather ... is it nice enough to go outside and do drills or something
for batting: keep your eyes on the ball for catching/throwing: have a catch with someone, it helps for fielding: run after the ball like your life depends on it
Well I'm in seventh grade and I already had tryouts and my first game is march 1 so all I got to say is for catching,always have two hands holding the mitt,hand in the mitt and other hand squeezing it.Batting just swing like you mean it,and don't rest it on your shoulder.Hitting zone is your torso and above the knees anything above or below don't hit.And that's all hope you do good
+GianniGhost Hi there. I've been playing ball for quite a few years now and I can honestly say that the most important things is to focus. If you strikeout or miss a ball don't let it get you down. Shake it off and redeem yourself with an even better play or hit. You'll make some serious errors if you don't focus on what's going on in the moment. And another really important thing is to not get a big head. I know it's hard because I used to have one of the biggest heads, but when you get lined in the knee cap, you humble down a bit. Have confidence in yourself, but don't get bossy just becuse you think you're better than other girls. Be optimistic and I swear you'll have a fun year. Oh, and winning isn't everything, but it sure as hell is fun.
I play travel baseball and I have played with two girls that play baseball because they say it is more challenging than softball. I can not say which is harder for I have never played softball. I imagine it is very challenging
Tanner Simpson My dad coached both myself in baseball and my sister in softball. He said softball is harder because every single pitcher has a riser, screwball, sinker (called a dropball), changeup, curveball, and fastball. My sister said the _sport_ of fastpitch softball is harder, but the average high school baseball player is better because there's a bigger pool of players to pick from. About half the people who tried out for my high school baseball team wouldn't make it but only a few wouldn't make the softball team.
Im catcher but where I live its to hot to be catcher, and the struggle of catching ground balls and throwing it back to the pitcher without it missing lol.
I love this video. I coach girls ages 9 and up and I'm always trying to explain to my older girls what it's going to be like to be a collegiate athlete. This video illustrates the points I'm always trying to make in a funny way. The girl dancing/cheering reminds me of my younger daughter who we always have to remind to stay focused! 😂
I'm considering doing softball (would be my first year in softball, and in doing sports) I'm going to work very hard this summer to get in better shape for it and to practice. Any advice?
Don't ever give up! You're gonna get mad at people/ the game. But as long as your practice almost every day. You'll do great. Try to find a local batting cage, and start throwing a softball around with a friend of yours. (And do lots of lifting or just squats, planks, and long runs.)
+1 because you remind me of my sister. While you're still young, you could learn a lot about softball form from TH-cam videos. Just don't watch Jennie Finch's batting, she's way too far out on her front foot.
im in 7th grade i did dance since i was 3 and soccer when i was like 6 and gymnastics just last year and im doing softball in march but never played before anyone have advice i know very little about it
Don't be nervous have fun and make friends with the people on you team and if you no somebody that does softball or has done softball ask them and see if you can practice with them
I play softball and that party one is totally me like my friends are like hey wanna come to my house or go somewhere fun and I’m like ohh... sorry I got softball
when I do something wrong coach is ALWAYS WATCHING AND WHEN I DO SOMETHING GOOD HE IS NEVER WATCHING
WHY IS THIS SO RELATABLE?!
I know
OMG HONESTLY
ahaha so trueee
irish spring THAT IS EXACTLY ME
Coach: get your hands off your hips
Player: I have a cramp can I rub it!
Coach: No.

My batting gloves are missi- oh wait, they're underneath my sunflower seeds.
heyimbigj or there in my helmet
heyimbigj I hate when their soggy because my hands are sweaty

omg the feels of walk up stairs after conditioning 😅
Man i thought we were the only ones who were addicted to seeds lol like that shit literally covered our whole floor.
I try to hit the first of third basemen when I spit out mine which is every second. I LOVE seeds!
Denyse Barton I feel you
When I played Rec, they literally banned seeds.
No one cleans the fields of the public one and shells everywhere
@@jill9356 that's tough I know how it is though
OH MY GOD, why do all softball players love to eat sunflower seeds in the dugouts? Our team does that too
THERE SOOO GOOD

That so weird I have my last game tomorrow I hope I win
personally i’ve had to much bad ones n i don’t like them anymore 😭
Another thing softball players say
In the middle of winter after taking a break because of weather ... is it nice enough to go outside and do drills or something
This is so me! Especially "This mound sucks!"
Yup I'm with yea on that! #16 Bombsquad pitcher
I usually say " that was a strike it's just that the batter is to far from the plate"

I would like this but I don't want to ruin the perfect 69 likes u have
When the girl was talking in her head 😂I can relate in outfield
so I'm in 7th grade and I'm trying out for Softball this May. can anyone give me advice? I've never really played softball/baseball
for batting: keep your eyes on the ball for catching/throwing: have a catch with someone, it helps
for fielding: run after the ball like your life depends on it
Ask for help from girls and your coach if youve never played maybe take a clinic or a hitting lesson :)
Well I'm in seventh grade and I already had tryouts and my first game is march 1 so all I got to say is for catching,always have two hands holding the mitt,hand in the mitt and other hand squeezing it.Batting just swing like you mean it,and don't rest it on your shoulder.Hitting zone is your torso and above the knees anything above or below don't hit.And that's all hope you do good
its fun, and not as easy as it seems but if u try hard you can do it

Softball is a real sport
Baseball is a watered down version of fastpitch softball.
blimpton lol you don't play baseball do you?
Watch the science behind softball and baseball on TH-cam it shows how softball is harder
I play travel baseball and I have played with two girls that play baseball because they say it is more challenging than softball. I can not say which is harder for I have never played softball. I imagine it is very challenging

5:01 to 5:09 is so me when I try to throw back to the pitcher! (I'm a catcher)
Same 😂😂😁
Im catcher but where I live its to hot to be catcher, and the struggle of catching ground balls and throwing it back to the pitcher without it missing lol.
Piper Boyer I'm a pitcher next year I was gunna be one this year but I got to nervous so I wasn't one
Oooh, that pain when you've gotta catch a whole game because the other one isn't there...
Calves of STEEL

*After hitting a batter*
She was the one who was crowding the plate...

Im in seventh grade and im going to try out for softball in may, I have never played softball but I grew up watching baseball. Any advice?
one of my old coaches ended up banning sunflower seeds cuz we ate them instead of cheering😭
I'm considering doing softball (would be my first year in softball, and in doing sports) I'm going to work very hard this summer to get in better shape for it and to practice. Any advice?
Don't ever give up! You're gonna get mad at people/ the game. But as long as your practice almost every day. You'll do great. Try to find a local batting cage, and start throwing a softball around with a friend of yours. (And do lots of lifting or just squats, planks, and long runs.)

While you're still young, you could learn a lot about softball form from TH-cam videos. Just don't watch Jennie Finch's batting, she's way too far out on her front foot.
blimpton TRUTH! want a good batter go watch Jessica Mendoza! Watched her hit live when i was younger and i swear i met jesus

Im a Utility, I mostly play left field short stop and catcher, because of my arm

3:45 me when I have to clean my room😂
Does anyone know what they're saying at 2:06-2:11?
Get it one four get it get it one four (they're supporting their teammate who is #14)
Who is the girl at 2:07 saying " get it 1-4 get it get it 1-4"?
Before 5:19, when the girl did a diving catch I was like is her knee ok. Her knee looked like it hit the ground really hard
My coach this year is my best friends mom and my best friend is on my team. So if I did something wrong my coach wouldn’t care.
