the rec league my kid is in doesn't have anything other then house for girls...... but they have almost 2 travel and 2 tournament teams for each boys age group...... so, im trying to put together something for the girls
i have a 10u team, and possibly 2 of them...... and they're trying for a 12u
my issue with the 10u is...... they are mostly 9 yr olds, and ill have (3) 8 yr olds - i did make all the parents and coach's aware of this age difference
some of the coach's in the leagues upper level have done travel with their older daughters, and have filled me in with what to expect...... which was to not win. were all good with that, as we are aware that this is an attempt to build something within our league.
anyone willing to give some tips or advice or a heads up on what to look for in the tournaments? such as, any specific ones i should look for, or certain rules or classes (levels)....... do i need to follow any bat rules? what is better for pitching..... speed or accuracy?
were in southeast michigan
please..... i dont need to hear how bad were going to lose, or that this is a bad idea......i was able to get parents and coach's on board with this, i dont need any discouragement. im not expecting anything other then for the girls to have fun, and to keep this going in my league! the girls only options after a certain age is to try out for another cities travel, or find a new city rec ball league.
sorry if this is under the wrong topic....... i didnt realize i was under ratings when i posted
