Who out there knows of a good batting coach that I could take my girl to she's moving up to 14u and her batting hasn't been on?

Carmen at Champions Edge
(from my daughter's experience)
- great communicator with the girls
- eye for detail
- patient
- 2-4 girls max

Roger at Champions Edge
(mostly from observation)
- pretty much the same qualities although I don't think my daughter really connected with his style
- I think he is a little more demanding and a little less patient
- 3-6 girls max

Bottom line: lots of great instructors probably all with similar qualities. You HAVE to find someone your daughter "connects" with. It may take a few different trys. It took us three.

Be patient and good luck!

Pitcher2000dad,

Not sure if she could/would do it with school and softball, but Brittany Duncan who plays for Valpo gives lessons when home for Summer in Dayton, OH area. Her Dad is one of the, if not the best in OH and both were taught by Howard Carrier who was Crystal Bustos' hitting coach and 1 of the best ever. I have heard from many that she does a great job!!!!! Maybe worth looking her up.
