Couple questions here.
First, is there a difference between a boys baseball glove and a girls fastpitch glove? I see website list both categories but not sure if there is a real difference.
Second, had a parent ask me what size glove her daughter should be purchasing for next year. This is a 10u travel ball girl and is pretty good size, not what I would call fat at all but she does have some good size and she is a strong girl. She is left handed throw, and will be playing 1st base, catcher, and a little outfield (mostly catching and first base).
I was leaning towards recommending a 12.5" open web glove as a all around glove to play all three positions with. I understand there is a specific glove for all three position but that can get very expensive. Keep in mind she will go to a 12" ball next year also.
