This small team was fast and executed all kinds of bunts and just picked us apart. They had push bunts, drag bunts, slap bunts, bunts with 2 strikes, suicide squeezes. Some girls were slap bunting righty to get it past the drawn in defense. Every time they would get on base they would steal 2nd and 3rd or move the runner over somehow and score. They were probably one of the best coached teams I have ever seen at the 10u level.
You will see the best teams at 10u can all execute and defend the bunt in addition to everything else they do.
If you are if first year travel team at 10U and you run into a team like this, you should tip your hat to them, recognize that they are a better team, and learn all you can from watching them execute! I think the key for a first year team (especially early in the season) is to avoid the losses to teams that you should beat. You do that by minimizing your mistakes, and taking advantage of theirs. Good defense in the infield, backing up throws, good plate coverage on passed balls...Avoid giving up the 5+ run inning if you can...don't give up a sure out at first, to try to get an unlikely tag at 3B.
As the team get more experience, you will find ways to beat teams that are better than you.
