    Brand new team, for us & them! Any way to feel secure?

    1st team practice is Sunday, wish us luck! This will shed light on the players, coaches & parents... I'm hoping for the best and expecting the worst all at the same time! With the 1hr distance of driving I'm hoping it's a decent team & with out time & money!!

    I went with: Stronger by Kelly Clarkson I don't care, I love it by Icona Pop Light em up by Fall Out Boy Cruise by Florida Georgia Line & Roar by Katy Perry to end it I wanted the girls to look back in 10-20 years & think "wow those songs were what we listened to back then" as...

    Brand new team, for us & them! Any way to feel secure?

    He did tell me that the SS & 3rd baseman moved up, he would also like to find a #2 catcher, but has 2 (he doesn't want his DD catching). He has 2 pitchers already.... Those are the only "facts" I truly know about the team thus far.

    Brand new team, for us & them! Any way to feel secure?

    In the process of trying to find a 14U team nearby for my daughter we came across a brand new team that branched off from another team. The HC didn't go into much details but that the "insert team name" founder wasn't going to have a 14U team so him & the other coach broke off & created "Team...

    Alumni player or have to tryout for a spot?

    We have the opposite problem - if anything we are always told shes so small, not strong enough, her hands dont fit the ball well yet, etc. maybe moving up to 14u she was just small... But not much i can do about that one! Lol

    Alumni player or have to tryout for a spot?

    I mean we knew it wasn't good & we were obviously frustrated, but with 13 kids on the team and the way he had the girls everywhere each inning I just thought he was unorganized & didn't keep track! I just reached out to last years head coach and asked for stats - maybe that will really shed...

    Alumni player or have to tryout for a spot?

    True! and thank you... She is in school softball now - practicing & hitting for 3 hours daily or games, and this week 6 games!! I will continue to search for a team & taking lessons! She has improved greatly over the years & we will keep those efforts there :) From last years school ball til...

    Alumni player or have to tryout for a spot?

    To answer your questions.... When I was pitching, I was asked by the coach - I never instructed (he did) I simply pitched to the players. While catching in on the field before games it was the coach hitting & instructing & the girls simply throwing into me instead of pulling a girl off the...

    Alumni player or have to tryout for a spot?

    I'm not trying to be one of those parents "my daughters the best", as I said it the other posts, she is no stand out player, she makes errors, she had her hitting slumps this past year! But she is a GOOD player! There were the standard 4 girls that sat 1/2 of EVERY game. 2 of those 4 that...

    Alumni player or have to tryout for a spot?

    We were/are one of the few parents that put their child in private lessons (both hitting & pitching). She had a great tryout!!! Actually the star of the team from the previous year couldnt hit a ball fair for te life of her - and yes, she made the team! She hustled, she hit well, she fielded...

    Alumni player or have to tryout for a spot?

    She batted all over the place, 2nd, 5, 6, 7, 8..... She had some big hits, even a double this season - but had her share of strike outs & walks too! She made errors, she wasnt perfect.... But even the best players on the team had these days! Out of the 70+ games. She only played 3 full games (2...

    Alumni player or have to tryout for a spot?

    See, this is what i have heard.... My daughter was a dedicated, committed player! The coach put her at 7 different positions (sometimes 4-5 different positions a game) and never heard a complaint out of her! She is no stand out player, but a very good player! We went to tryouts & was under the...

    Alumni player or have to tryout for a spot?

    Just finished our 1st year of TRUE TB (70+ game season), we have played TB locally but with a less competitive & MUCH shorter 20 game season & a required town ball season of about 12-15 games on top of that. We have been told by many seasoned TB parents that Alumni as they call them (those...

    dd gets drilled while pitching tonight

    Wow - this must be the year for it! My dd's travel team got nailed this year! We had a pitcher get a line drive back in the face, had a rip it on, but still fractured her nose! Same pitcher got a line drive back in the right knee cap (follow through leg) no time to react! (fluid on the knee...

    Umpire reverses call after off the field & still allows a run to score

    Totally agree!!! Just makes our team look like a bunch of redneck a$$holes by they way they were acting!! Lol

    Umpire reverses call after off the field & still allows a run to score

    If the catcher would have been paying attention & caught the ball it would have been very close. The runner did not slide or attempt to slide she still had 2 maybe 3 more steps before touching home, so a clear out if she didn't slide. But if she would have slid it would have been close...
