First off let me start by saying we are going on year 2 with same team in 12u. Our dues are monthly and have been required every month. Recently our HC posted in another forum that he was looking for two players SS and Pitcher and that he would consider no dues for the fall. Now I am kind of upset with this because of obvious reasons. So yesterday we had a practice and guess what...a new player showed up and today they were added to the team. The player we added is no more talented than the rest of our team and we have several players IMO that can play SS, 2nd, etc. We also already had 12 girls so adding a 13th player just adds more possible benching for my child in the future. So my concern is that this new player isnt paying dues while the rest of us do and she will get special treatment to the tune of free softball and most likely playtime. Its a real shame because the coach is a likeable guy but we are not a winning ball club. I guess he wants to win at all costs but this is pushing me and my family out the door. What would I be teaching my daughter if we stayed knowing that some people arent paying and following the rules set by our HC at the beginning of every season. Now everything is in question, the books, whos paying, whos not, where is my money going, etc. To me its kind of messed up and I want other people to weigh in and give me their opinions.
