Don't remember who made it, but it has been posted in some of the South FL division websites for the better part of a year or so.

i think i found a thread in here recently where this video was posted originally and the credit was given to the FL Coastal division. either way, great video whoever made it, and we've also got it up on the VA Shore page, and it used to be up on the VA Peninsula page as well.

The video was created by Jeff Hopkins of California Junction division, and is hosted by Jim Nieb, former Head Ref/Rules Chair of that division. Jeff also produced the CA Studio Championship game and the highlight reel posted in another thread.

He holds a kickball post-game press conference after every game in CA Studio, and posts the videos here:

People in California love making movies. I've noticed this.

We used to have it up on the VA Peninsula site, but the one I linked to was removed from youtube one day so I deleted it. I'll probably post this one before the fall season starts. It's a really good video.

So when I asked permission from the Orlando division to use it for the Hartford website you're saying I was asking the wrong person.

That's hilarious...I was actually told to take it down, or at least remove the WAKA logos from the front & back...but by then it had been distributed all over!

It's kind of eye-opening...in fact when I was shooting it, I had a pretty poor understanding of the strike zone and kept stopping the dude thinking he was messing up.

Yep, it's pretty much become the definitive video on the strike zone. It should be required viewing for all new teams ...
