That is, 2 college softball graduates teamed together to coach a 14U (99) softball team. They started last year, and placed 13th out of 117 teams (USFA though...but still good for 1st year, yes??). They have indoor/outdoor facilities also. They plan on playing all venues (ASA, USFA, PGF, etc). So...it's...are you ready for this?? $225/month. And it's possible we will have to contribute more $$ if we play more tournaments/games. They did say we will be actively fundraising so that will be huge help.
Anyhow, I have not paid more than $125/month but every team DD's been on has been daddy ball. And we didn't have access to indoor/outdoor facilities...and we didn't have the young women with lots of softball experience. These women are obviously extremely active and a positive influence on the girls.
So what do ya'll think? We are going to tryout Saturday morning...I want to see how DD interacts/reacts to the coaches and the atmosphere...if it's positive, and she loves it...it might be worth it.
BTW, it's a tough drive...there is no straight highway/freeway to this part of town. 17.5 miles from our house...would take us 35-45 minutes to get there due to traffic (lights/construction/one lane roads/etc). Helps that I have a mid-sized sedan (smaller side) so not gas guzzling. LOL.
