    6U and Discipline Running??

    I apologize for taking so long to get back! We have NOT implemented it. I think we just had a bad day. It was a day were 2 of our 4 coaches didn't show and chaos ensued.

    Parent problem..... already?

    Well I posted yesterday about help building rules and expectations for my 6U team. I quickly learned that a successful practice would mean every girl participated for at least 10 minutes and no one got beaned in the head with a bat. You all are great! Anyways, we had parent meeting tonight. YAY...

    6U Team Rules and Expectations

    I am learning this will be interesting. I think I'll be lucky to get the girls to not chase butterflies in the outfield. I think I will Keep expectations to the bare minimum of be nice to each other. We do have 6U umpires. But no rules were signed when they registered. I will do my best to keep...
