So true!! Travel ball started last week and it was such a nice change :) Forgot what it was like for her to be excited before the tournament, during the tournament and after the tournament. I guess that means we are finally on the right team. We definitely sucked at picking teams through the years - I'm tempted to say wish we could do it all over again, but knowing what we knew at the time probably would have ended up the same way. The good news is DD will be (and is) more mature and stronger than I was for some of her experiences through softball - both the good and the bad. Hopefully HS ball next year will be better just playing V and some of the JV drama and hassle of bouncing back and forth.

DD freshman was split between V and JV. She pitched on JV and only DP'd on V. Been playing V only the last 3 weeks so not really doing much besides batting.

Back to travel this week, and she went to the first practice Tuesday with the team and told me in the morning how sore she was. She said "I knew we didn't really do much work in HS, but I didn't realize it was that much different."

We'll see how she does after 5+ games this weekend in 90 degree temps. Heck, we'll see how I do after 5+ games this weekend in 90 degrees temps.

I was . . . until it started! We had a competitive HS team that made it to group quarters, travel team, not so much, but it is early. Good group of girls and parents. Just need to get some of the errors out of their system.
