I just started a 8U travel team. Recently picked up a new player from a local team. I was shocked ( if parent is telling complete truth) that the player was recently cut from her previous 8U team by text. The quote the parent gave me was that they received a text from the coach that stated, "your daughter isn't softball player material." I understand that at 8 you can definitely see potential in a player. But, can you really tell a kid to basically hang it up at 8 years old because you just aren't softball material? A week ago I picked up a player from same team that they didn't want anymore. She is going to be a good player for me now and hopefully in the future. I'm taking this girl who they say is not softball material and I'm going to make her a player.
