dPayton,

This can be a problem. I wouldn't "like" hearing you've been doing it wrong for 10 years. But if it were truly wrong I would "want" to hear about it. No sense in being proud about doing things wrong.

No person alive knows everything when it comes to baseball. Those who think they do can present a problem. We always talk about the ability to adjust and how important that is for players. It is equally important for coaches, instructors and parents. IMO

Communication is important, unfortunately it takes two in order to communicate. Diplomacy is still worth a try. If all else fails... make the necessary adjustments!
