Randy Pinto  I want to again express my gratitude for having the privilege of joining the Lady Warriors Softball Program this year.  I have coached T-ball, Little League Baseball, Little League Fast Pitch Softball, and girl’s basketball with about 10 seasons under my belt.  I look forward to the challenge of pushing our 14U team to their maximum potential.  I have played baseball from about age 8 through high school and then have played softball in various leagues ever since.  Although my background is really baseball, I’ve spent many hours over the last 5 years attending clinics, viewing instructional videos, meeting and observing seasoned pitching and hitting coaches (and picking their brains) and constantly reading anything I can get my hands on to improve my knowledge of the game.  I’ve also learned quite a bit by attending upper level tournaments and studying what really makes a good coach.  I also have access to the expertise of some of the best coaches in the country right within our Lady Warriors program for guidance (please review our more senior coaches biographies i.e. 16U and 18U coaches as well as our very successful 12U coaches). 

Although I really love to coach, honestly, I’d rather be playing – therefore you will see me running thru the drills with the girls, demonstrating skills (often embarrassing myself) and trying to get in as much playing as I can while moving the girls thru fast-paced practices.  I also believe that how we handle ourselves on the athletic field reflects and teaches us how to handle other life situations and therefore sportsmanship, character, ethical behavior and “class” will be nurtured on our team. 

As for my personal statistics, I am 46yo, married, 2 great kids (Melanie 13 and Samantha 9), a Family Practice doctor in Louisville since 1987 and love to play most sports but obviously, girls fast pitch softball is now my fav!

See you on the ball field!  Go Lady Warriors!      Coach Pinto
