"The Windmill Pitcher is the most comprehensive book on fastpitch pitching that I have read. It is an excellent reference for both coaches and pitchers." -- Ernie Parker, world-renowned pitching coach "I now have a comprehensive reference book to offer the people who contact me about pitching. The chapter on increasing ball speed is outstanding. There was an incredible need for this book and I thank Barry for writing it." -- Sherry Werner, PhD, lead researcher, International Olympic Committee's Submission on Biomechanics and Physiology "One of the most comprehensive fastpitch instructional books on the market today. A must addition for any coach's library." -- Art Certosimo, DuPage County, Illinois Barry Simmons has been a pitcher in men's fastpitch softball leagues at all levels for 35 years. Also a student of art and design, Sammons used his knowledge to develop many of the illustrations used in the book. He is an attorney for the Milwaukee, Wisconsin firm of Quarles & Brady.

To become a good pitcher, one must first become a good thrower. To become a good thrower, one must learn the mechanics of pitching and then master them in order to throw the ball with speed and with control. You become a good pitcher when you understand how to get batters out with the pitches you can throw, when you know how to maintain your composure under game pressures and when you are in good physical condition. And to become a good fastpitch softball pitcher, you must be able to do all this with an underhanded pitching motion. Author Barry Sammons examines all of these elements in Fastpitch Softball: The Windmill Pitcher. In a book written for both players and coaches, Sammons makes all of the principles equally applicable to male and female players.
