Anyone 'pull their funding' from their DD when they don't or won't put in the time required to improve?.. by funding I mean instruction or other expenses.
When we got ready to commit to a TB team we confirmed with my DD that she was willing to put in the time and effort to be the best she can be. My DW and I were not going to pay for her to play high-level TB (team fees, uniforms, travel, hotels, pitching lessons, batting lessons, ect) if DD was not willing to give 110%. If DD just wanted to play for fun there were plenty of local REC leagues available.
