    Playing time based on cheering

    This was for Sunday bracket play, roster batting was allowed for pool, but only 9 in bracket play. But, the coach didn't realize this until the start of the game on Sunday & was super flustered because she had never just batted 9 or done DP/flex before. This definitely says something about the...

    Playing time based on cheering

    That is exactly what is happening. The issue with the 50% playing time is the reason. I am not sure how loudly the guest players cheered, but they did participate in the dancing. The coach did say to the team that she wished the guest players were up and cheering more. The guest players were...

    Playing time based on cheering

    Yes! I thought it was odd that players are not allowed to ask what they can do to earn more playing time. I will encourage DD to try to find out if there's anything else other than not being loud enough. The nine that were playing were the girls that had been on the team the longest plus the...

    Playing time based on cheering

    That was my concern, the coach wants the team to be LOUD at all times. At 14U DD is past the constant screaming out of all the chants & songs. So are the other girls on the team, they just do it because the coach expects it. Some girls are very involved in the game & are super competitive but...

    Playing time based on cheering

    Guest players were there because the team was short, with the guest players they had 11. The other benched player was another quiet teammate. DD is cheering and involved in the game, she's super competitive, just not yelling chants. I questioned the reason also, like you said it's dumb. The...

    Playing time based on cheering

    Looking for advice for my DD, she is 13 so will be the one talking to the coach and deciding what to do about the situation. She has been getting progressively less playing time this season, now at about 50% of innings on the bench. Pick up players have been at every game & are playing every...

    Outfield Glove 13yo

    Update on the glove for anyone else interested in the Murucci custom, ordered the Marucci custom Cypress 12.75 H-web with the finger shift & the c fit. It did take 10 weeks to arrive, which isn't surprising with all the delays. Great quality glove & with the ability to customize it, it's a...

    Marucci Cypress Feedback

    I ordered a custom Marucci Cypress 12.5 with the c-type fit & finger shift for my 13 year old for CF (she's planning on using her smaller glove when she pitches). Should be here within the next week or 2, & I'll post her thoughts when it gets here.

    After approximately 50 mock ups she's deciding between toffee and black or dark purple & black, thinking about it at school today, and planning to order it tonight! Here's some pics of her mockups hopefully it works

    Outfield Glove 13yo

    Called Marucci, the gentleman I spoke with recommended the Magnolia series & the 3D inserts since my daughter does like a snug fit (she always wears a glove under her mitt). Wrist opening on both the Cypress & Magnolia can both go down to 6.5". Have all the options sorted out, now just...

    Outfield Glove 13yo

    Thank you so much, this was a huge help. I'm looking at the baseball Custom Cypress M Type series. Hopefully that's the right one She keeps her index finger in & I think she is wearing her glove TIP. So we'll go with no hood or pad & a shift. This will probably be a dedicated OF glove...

    Outfield Glove 13yo

    Thanks so much for your help. Called Vinci & they said that a RV1961 could be made in about 2 weeks. So we are going to go with that, & will have time to get it broken in over the winter.
