Softball Excellence DUGOUT
What People are Saying:
"If you coach softball you should take advantage of the knowledge Cindy Bristow is offering through Softball Excellence. I have been involved in fast pitch softball for more than 35 years as a player and coach, and she is the most knowledgeable coach I have worked with. Cindy's basic approach to teaching sound fundamentals, without a bunch of gimmicks, will greatly assist in the preparation of your players to compete physically and mentally. The material she produces is direct, to the point, and easy to absorb."
- Ernie Yarbrough
Associate Director Georgia High School Association "There is a ton of information out there, but I couldn't really tell what was good and what was just selling. Someone recommended softball excellence as a sight for information. I checked it out and have done all the eclinics and bought several hard back books and drills. You are very good at explaining this wonderful sport. You put it all in common sense terms and use video and pictures very well. - Thanks again!" - Dee Swartz
Fastpitch Softball mom/coach "I just wanted to write and thank you for the outstanding clinic last weekend. Ive attended many coaching clinics with the likes of Bob Knight, Coach K., Rick Pitino, Doug Collins, Larry Brown, and I have to say that your thoughts and philosophies were every bit as insightful, valuable, and entertaining as were these coaching legends. Thank you also for all that you do and have done for the great game of fastpitch softball and our athletes." - Mike Maguire

Use 'Em or Lose 'EmBy: Cindy BristowEver wonder how all the great coaches turn all that charting data into info that actually helps their team win games? If so then you aren't alone as too many coaches spend time gathering tons of information on all kinds of charts while never actually doing anything with any of it. If you know how to properly evaluate your charts you'll discover they contain lots of secrets that will change how you call pitches, how you practice & prepare for opponents and how you attack the other team. For many of you games have started and it's time to pull out all those charts you use both in the dugout and in the stands. Lots of you spent tons of time charting everything from your pitchers to your hitters to everything about your opponents. And while charting can really help you learn a great deal about your team, your players and your opponents it's only as effective as your method for sifting through and using the volume of data you'll quickly generate. While I offer a lot of charting samples on my site for tracking anything from hitters to pitchers to coaching tendencies, the secret lies in how you take all this info once you're finished charting and make it show you the secrets behind the numbers. If you're going to bother charting then there are 4 things you must do in order to make sure your time isn't wasted and that the information you gather will actually put your team in a position to win:
This past weekend I spoke at an NSC Coaches Clinic in Kansas City in front of about 600 enthusiastic softball coaches and one of my topics was How to Use Pitching Charts to Win More Games in which I used my eClinic, Pitching Charts – How to Use Them to Win More Games! In this eClinic you'll see and hear everything you'll need to know so you can take all those pitching charts and actually find out the secrets that lie inside of them. Find out things like what pitch your pitcher should be throwing more and which ones she's already throwing too much.
