This week I welcome Allie (former D1 softball player, travel coach and recruiting coordinator) and Paul Richmond (father of 2 D1 softball players and current Horseheads HS coach), a father-daughter duo deeply involved in the softball world. They discuss their unique experiences in navigating the complexities of youth sports, the recruitment process, and the importance of maintaining open communication within their family!
