Super Power

Posted by Coach on March 31, 2026, 9:28 am

The greatest superpower a softball parent can have is a clear, realistic assessment of their child's talent level as it is today. Not their potential, but how they play the sport today compared to their peers.

It literally makes everything easier. Watching the games, training, team placement (including high school), etc.

This is 100% correct.

Twitter parents are 100% the opposite.

How many parents are even on Twitter?

My assumption is that MOST college-seeking travel/HS player parents have access to their kids accounts, and OFTEN are doing the majority of the posting.

No, just the crazy ones. The ones that love to post about their kids make believe rankings that they paid for.

Sorry your muffin didn't make the list. But that doesn't give you the right to demean the list.

Nobody cares. Work harder.

You are correct, my muffin was never on any ridiculous rankings list, yet she is currently playing D1. You young parents will buy anything they are selling, its comical.

Go through the OU, Texas, and other SEC teams rosters. You will find they're full of players who made these silly little lists.

You think you could just come on here and bad talk these lists and invalidate them. Nope.

LOL, wow, struck a nerve. Your 2032 must be ranked in the top 10 by Showtime and Extra innings.

She's a 2035, thank you.

....and just wait until April. Her new bat should come in from eBay. She's going to be to be extra innings top five for sure. I'm ordering two of them in case the hot ones are extra fragile

I know of many players who handle their own social media. It doesn't make sense having a parent do it. They typically aren't that fresh.

The most I ever did on my kids x account was post a video for her. No comments or statements just a video when she asked.
