DD is on a good team with a highly recognized organization. She loves playing with this particular group of girls. Here's the problem... They never practice at all. No fundamentals or anything on a consistent basis. Everyone is expected to practice on their own. But she hasn't developed at all, and has actually regressed from the player she was, before we joined the team. I always thought you practiced more than you played. But this team plays more than they practice and I don't see how she benefits from this at all. I can see this maybe at the second year 14U and up level. But at the 1st year 12U level, I don't buy it. I don't see this changing with this team either. Do you stick it out knowing she doesn't progress as quickly as she should? Or do you pick up chalks and find coaches willing to run structured practices and develop the players? The only reason we left the last team is because it dismantled. But the HC was committed to teaching the fundamentals and player development. Now... Not so much!
