This helped a lot I just made the softball team and it’s my first time playing softball thank u can u teach us batting also???
Congratulations I am glad you did. I am not the best at batting but I will try to do one and with someone that knows more.
@@throughjoelianiceslens3592 You explained things well, now I feel a lot more confident (I've never played softball before), so please make one for batting too! That would be great!
How old are you, I'm thinking about starting and I'm 14...
@@aspynidstrom7443 I turn 14 next month and I'm going to be trying out for softball when I get to highschool, its never too late to start! Although I have prier baseball experience, it was many years ago. I say if you want to start, start!:)
@@Maddiegrace..07 I got signed up!

Thank you. I am glad to help you I hope it goes well for you. Let me know if you need any tips
Same but I already signed up lel
I am considering it right now and wanted to know what I'd be getting myself into
Thank you! This is only my second year playing softball and I’m trying out for the alliance team (kind of like a travel team) but last year my coaches said to basically just catch the ball and throw it to the pitcher, so this is the first year I’m learning actual plays and rules so this was very helpful with the pitching and where to hold your hands
I know you are going to great and Will learn a lot more this year. I will be posting a video tonight on the basic of batting I hope it helps😁
I have my softball tryouts at my middle school in a few days and this helped me really understand the basics. Thank you!
Glad it helped!
THANK YOU I'm doing tryouts for the 2nd time and last time I may or may not of had not known where to throw "3rd base" To 🤷♀️
I recommend watching baseball games in order to so you where to throw when a play in made. And there is many UA-cam videos on it. Goodluck again
This was amazing! I'm thinking of doing Softball soon and I know nothing. This is really helpful
Glad it was helpful! I know you going to do well, as long as you practice. You got this💪🏻
Tell me why I watched through SO many “professional” videos and the only one that really helped was this teenage girl on UA-cam.
this is one of the best tutorials i’ve seen so far, so good explains everything perfectly!
Wow, thank you! I am glad it was helpful
This helped a lot. I’m trying out this fall for my 8th grade softball team and I hope I can make it!!!
Did u make it?
I am sure you did fine and I hope that you keep practicing and keep trying even if you didn't 💪🏻
how did it go
Thanks for braving those crazy bugs to make a super helpful video!
I’m about to play softball when it’s summer time, thanks to you I’m starting to know how it works!
thanks for sharing! your confidence and clarity when explaining it's motivating
Anytime 💪🏻
i know this videos old but i’m starting to learn how to play softball and this video was so helpful! thank you for risking the bugs for this
Lmao I am glad to risk the bugs to help you out. I hope to do more videos over the summer so stay tune.
This helped a lot, I’m gonna try out next fall for my middle school softball team and this was just what I needed to know ty!!!
You got this!
I did softball for a bit when i was younger but i lost my skills so this really refreshed alot
thank you for this! my dad was trying to explain some of this and it really helped to see a visual!
I am glad I was helpful. You can ask any questions. Good luck on try outs if you are trying out this season
Tryouts are in 2 weeks and I’m a beginner so this helped me a lot 🙂
Literally same😭. I still don’t even know if I have to buy softball shoes for tryouts yet😅 or if I need my own glove
Good luck!!
You usually have to have those and need it for try outs
This helped so much I’m try outing out for softball for the first time this year si I haven’t played that much and I don’t really have any friends that play it so I can’t ask anyone really!I only know one person who is also going to tryouts!I really think this helped
I know u most have done well. I hope you in a team now and if you aren’t there is always a next time. You can always talk to school coach and ask if you can atleast practice with them in order to get some practice in.
omg tysm im so new to softball its my first time playing this is so helpful tysm
Happy to help! Goodluck !
This helped me a lot because I’m going to try out for my middle school softball team next year
Teach batting!!
This helps so much for my up coming tryouts tysm
Thank you for this video because I signed up for softballs and I have practice on March 2nd
Edit it’s now March 8th sadly
I wish you goodluck and I know your gonna do a great job. If you need anymore tips let me know 😊
Same what grade do you play? I’m in high school
@@throughjoelianiceslens3592 thanks!!
Oh lel I’m in 6th I’m way younger so it’s gon be diff fo me cuz I neva played SB beitre
@@christineotp It's good that you are still starting now I personally was older when I started playing and still got far. it's about how much work and practice you put in. In try outs they want to see you trying your hardest even if you ain't the best because hard work beats talent.
I am trying out and this helped so much
First year trying out super nervous this helped alot
Im 11, and i am starting softball, so this helped a lot! I loved how you added the OoHhh HElll Nooo 🤣😂
Lmaoo Thank you. I wish you goodluck You are going to do just fine 😁
This is so helpful! I love your accent! 😍
I'm so glad! and Thank you 😁
@@throughjoelianiceslens3592 You’re very welcome!
Thank you I know this will help a lot because I’m trying out for softball
I haven’t played sports in a year or so and they last thing I played was cheerleading and I’m the type to get influenced a lot and I’ve convinced my parents my buy me like 3 things the past year for sports and I lost influence on all of them so I’m planning to play softball or learn before I ask my parents to put me on a team. Hopefully I keep the inspiration of it going for atleast a year or two :)
Hey if you want it go for it! I know to keep me motivated and inspired I watch video and motivational videos and it definitely helps although I doubt you would need it, Softball is a very fun sports and you make new friends/ team that helps you stay on top of it ! Goodluck
Thank you so much I just joined softball at school and I need some practice
Thank you! It's fun for teenagers especially twin girls!
It definitely. Glad I could help.
im a twin boy :/
This is really good, thanks for doing this!
No problem!
This is so helpful I’m gonna join softball in January and my friends gonna be playing too (if we get on the same team then yayyy) and her mom is coaching so she’s gonna help me get all the supplies and she’s gonna take us to the park to help us train before tryouts 😮😮 (we’re prob not gonna be on the same team if we don’t make it to tryouts 😢)
Tysm you have taught me a lot I just began SoftBall and I’m horrible. This helped SO MUCH! Could u teach batting also???
Tysm!
I am glad it could help and I did a video on batting the basics of it unfortunately, I am unable to do more videos until March for personal reasons but I hope to make some then and hopefully they could help you.
I start today and this is going to help!
You are going to do fine. Thank you so much. I will be uploading a new video tonight on the basics of batting

This is really cool 😎 👍❤
Thank you this really helped I'll be playing softball for the first time in a while😁
You got this ! Just practice everyday and stay motivated !
Great tips! Thank you!
You welcome 😄
my dad played baseball and i’m a cheerleader in my sophomore year in highschool, dad asks me every year if i want to play one of mt cheer friends are doing and some of my friends do it, thought i should try somthing new and i made my dad teach me how to catch and stuff, thought it was fun so now i’m trying out tm
Idk if you’ll reply based off how long ago this was posted but I really want to try out for my middle school team and I’ve never played before (I think’s it’s super soon lol this is like last minute studying). This video was really helpful and I’m so glad I found it. I don’t think I’ll make it but this video made me a bit more confident. Tysm! Also, any tips?
I think you should give yourself some credit, taking your time to look at videos and going out ya way to try something new takes a lot of Guts. I recommend you try your best. Show that you want to learn softball and are willing to work hard to learn it. Just know that if you don’t make it, it does not mean you should not try again. It just means you need more time to learn and practice. I would speak with the coach and even ask if you could stay and watch practices or even participate in them even if you are not part of the team these way you can try out for next year again. You should ask for tips too from the coach. This will show you are going out ya way to be the best. I wish you good luck. I love your ambition to try new sport. 💪🏻if you got any questions let me know.
@@throughjoelianiceslens3592 Tysm for responding with a great reply you are so nice:). Your consideration is so sweet. I will definitely listen to your advice!
I'm going to tryouts Thursday and I've never played softball this was so helpful
I really hope you get in. And if not keep practicing 💪🏻
how’d you do?
@@keko8151 I would have gotten in team if I didn't miss 2 practices but I was sick I get to play someone off the team next year but for now I'm doing cross country
i used to play softball when i was 7. i couldn't run until i was 8, i was constantly bullied by not only my teammates but my coaches as well. now several several years later (i can run now lol) ive been inspired to try to pick the ball back up. im considering it for next season. idk we'll see.
Your message brought me so many personal memories. I used to have asthma as kid and I wasn’t allowed to run and play like the other kids. But at age 11 that wasn’t the case and I become the most athlete person. Now u have the opportunity to become a stronger and better person. Just because you started late doesn’t mean will be last , if you put effort, mind and heart u will surpass those who doubted you. Just do it for you 😀I think you should give it a go. You never know till you try
I am proud of you, regardless how long it took you did it
Ty, I have never played but I wanna, pls make more vid lol
Thanks I learned a lot about softball and I only played one time 🙂
I am very glad to hear that!
Thank you , a friend invited me and I had no idea how to play
Can u make a video on how to run to the right bases😭...
I will try my best this coming week. I will be posting a video tonight on the basics of batting
i love this video im new to softball so thank u
Happy to help! I am sure you would do fine and be the best at it !
This helped so much I hope I make the team!
I am glad It helped! YOu got this just keep practicing 😁

@@its.journeyy I didn’t make the team 😭
“Oh heeellll naahhh!!! “ lll
Thank u! It helped me a lott ❤️
I'm so glad!
Very nice 😊😚😘
My question is when to use a fast type ball and a slow type one?
This was sooo helpful to me 🤍
Glad it helped!
Thank you 😊for help to me
No problem!
I’m getting drafted next week and I’ve never played before so hopefully this helps
I hope so too!
I want to tryout to the softball team but I never played softball before do you think I can make it into the team?
You can do anything you put your mind too, as long as you practice. i hope try it. If not there is always a next time.
does your index finger HAVE to be out of the hole because my glove doesn't have a hole for the index finger.
hi friend
super video
this is so helpfull
Thank you 😊
Thanks for teaching me now I k5
thanks sooo much for this
You welcome😁
Been a year and a half since I played so I kind of forgot a lot of things
It happens, I been there. I will be posting a video tonight on the basics of batting I hope you watch it😁
If you were to want to join a softball team where could you find one?
You could look at schools if you attend one, also you could look at community softball leagues. I was in both community is more teaching and fun and school is more serious but also fun
Are softball rules the same as baseball rules? I’m an experienced baseball player, but I’m wondering if any specific rules are different.
Some rules are different but most of them are the same
I wanna start playing again. I played when I was like seven but I forgot how to play :(
Its all muscle memory, just practice and it will come back to you. You got this 💪🏻
Same
this is cool
i’m 14 and i wanna play softball but i’m scared to join a team or try out bc i feel like it’s too late for me to start
Don't be Scared. You got this, you just got to put your mind into it. The way you think it's what going to help you move forward and gain that confidence and motivation to work hard. Just keep practicing and don't give up. Goodluck😁💪🏻
Thank youuu
No problem😊
Can someone like sum up the positions and how the game works
Make shur you go low enough to the ground when feeding. Good video but my coaches would kill me if I didn’t bend my knees. I’ve been playing for 9 years! But great video
nice
Aren’t you always supposed to throw underhand is softball
No, THATS only if you literally close to each other instead of risking to overthrow you do it underhand but you throw normal when playing.
I play softball i hold the ball diffrent
That’s fine as long as you have control over the ball.
REMINDER: GOD AND JESUS CHRIST LOVES YOU SO SO VERY MUCH🙏💗💕💙❤️🙏💗💕💙❤️
I need that 🤍May God bless u
Your supposed to throw under hand in softball
Depending the play
Ok
😄
Guyssss it’s gonna be my first year of softball in sophomore 🥲
