Thanks @rawlingssb for this video! Beautiful example by @karlynpickensInternal rotation isn’t about rolling around the ball—it’s about staying behind the ball long enough to snap through it-One of the biggest mistakes I see with young pitchers is that they never truly learn what internal rotation is supposed to feel like.A lot of times it’s taught incorrectly. Young pitchers hear “internal rotation” and start rolling around the side of the ball instead of keeping their fingers behind it. In the process, they lose the snap entirely. They aren’t transferring force into the ball—they’re simply spinning around it.Then, before they’ve ever developed the correct feeling, we take snaps away.I understand that snaps aren’t meant to become the entire pitching motion, but they’re one of the best ways for a young pitcher to learn how to keep their fingers behind the ball and feel it come off their fingertips as the arm internally rotates. That feeling is what eventually carries over into the full pitching motion.If they never learn that release in isolation, it’s unrealistic to expect them to create it at full speed.Without that foundation, they often end up pushing the ball or rolling around it, costing them velocity, consistency, and accuracy.Don’t remove the drill before you’ve created the feel. And don’t teach internal rotation in a way that causes pitchers to lose the snap. Teach them how to keep their fingers behind the ball, create a true release, and then let that feeling transfer into the full motion. by @fosterfastpitch

🎙️ I need your help with something…I’m starting a new series called The Pitcher’s Battlefield.We’re going to talk about the battles no one sees—the conversations happening inside a pitcher’s mind and the lies that quietly steal confidence, joy, and performance.But I don’t want to guess.I want to hear from you.👇 Parents, coaches, and pitchers…What is the biggest lie your pitcher believes?Maybe it’s:• “I’m not good enough.”• “If I mess up, I let everyone down.”• “She’s better than me.”• “I have to be perfect.”Or maybe it’s something completely different.💬 Drop it in the comments or send me a message.Your topic might become the next episode, and it may be exactly what another pitcher needs to hear. by @fosterfastpitch

Notes From My Retreat Notebook ✍️One of my biggest takeaways came from Kyla Holas.Kyla is one of the top pitching minds in our game, with years of experience developing elite athletes and helping pitchers understand why movement happens—not just how to create it.One thing she reinforced that I can’t stop thinking about:Sequencing matters… a lot.But not everything affects sequencing.As coaches, it’s easy to harp on every little movement we see. Every glove position. Every finger. Every tiny imperfection.The reality?Some things are worth fighting for.Some things aren’t.Great coaching is knowing the difference.If a movement isn’t disrupting sequencing, timing, or force transfer, it may not need to be “fixed.”The goal isn’t to create robots.The goal is to help each athlete move as efficiently as possible.Sometimes the best coaching decision is knowing what not to harp on.Comment INFO for more info on our coaches certification ! by @fosterfastpitch

Some of the greatest gifts from this certification have nothing to do with pitching.They’re the people.The conversations after Zoom calls.The hugs at retreat.The texts that say, “I’ve been there too.”The coaches who celebrate your wins like they’re their own and show up when things get hard.This isn’t just a certification.It’s a family.A place where you’re seen.A place where you’re understood.A place where you don’t have to pretend you have it all figured out.We all come from different backgrounds, coach different athletes, and run our businesses in different ways, but we’re united by one goal: becoming the best coaches we can be for the athletes we serve.Growth happens faster when you’re surrounded by people who challenge you, encourage you, and genuinely want to see you succeed.That’s what we’ve built here.A place to belong.A place to grow.A place to become the coach—and the person—you were made to be.If you’ve been looking for more than another coaching course... if you’ve been looking for a community that feels like home...Our next Certified Coach enrollment opens **August 1st**.Comment **INFO** below, and we’ll send you all the details. 💚 by @fosterfastpitch

Our Foster Fastpitch Certified Coach Program was built to be a **safe place**—a place where coaches can learn without judgment, ask questions, share ideas, and grow alongside other coaches who are passionate about becoming the very best they can be.We believe in **Community Over Competition.**This isn’t about creating coaches who all look the same. It’s about helping you become the best version of **you**.Inside our certification, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of pitching mechanics, athlete development, communication, business growth, and what it truly takes to help athletes reach their potential. You’ll be surrounded by a community of coaches who genuinely want to see one another succeed.When you invest in becoming a better coach, you begin offering something that parents and athletes can’t find everywhere else.✨ Greater confidence in your coaching.✨ A deeper understanding of *why* things work.✨ Better communication with athletes and parents.✨ A supportive coaching community that wants to see you win.✨ The opportunity to continually grow—both personally and professionally.That’s how you separate yourself from the rest.Not by trying to be louder than everyone else.Not by copying what every other coach is doing.But by continually learning, growing, and developing into the coach your athletes deserve.Because the athletes you coach tomorrow are depending on the coach you’re willing to become today.If you’re looking for a coaching community that will challenge you, encourage you, support you, and help bring out the very best in you—we’d love to have you.👇 **Comment “INFO” below, and we’ll send you all the details.**🚨 **Applications for our next Foster Fastpitch Certified Coach Program open August 1.** We only open enrollment a few times each year, and spots are intentionally limited so we can pour into every coach who joins us.We can’t wait to welcome our next group of coaches. by @fosterfastpitch
