Understand - but how do you truly assess ability and potential at 11 years old? She’s not a pitching prodigy but she isn’t fully grown and she’s showing a lot of interest, practicing on her own and we are providing support within our resources and capabilities. We just constantly debate if we need to be doing ‘more’ - whether it’s put her in a different team, etc.Pitching is possibly the position players leave behind the most.

But not upper level.
Have to be realistic about current actual ability level in the quest for longer term goals.
individual decision!
