    Question on showcases and attending coaches.

    Thank you! Never thought of it that way!

    Question on showcases and attending coaches.

    Yes, she has. She was frustrated because she sent out a bunch for this weekend and a number of them aren’t attending her event but going to others. They were on the list her coach sent her. And it was her game schedule. She’s been consistently emailing the same bunch of schools that she’s...

    Question on showcases and attending coaches.

    Her travel coach likes to be included in her emails. Is that available with Captain U?

    Question on showcases and attending coaches.

    New to all of this so if this but please help a dad out. My daughter is attending a showcase tournament this weekend and her coach sent her a list of schools attending. Or so we thought. It was a list of schools that have attended in the past. She emailed one that was supposed to attend but got...

    How many players are too many?

    I totally agree. I just want to hear that from the coach. I’m all for competition. I want my daughter pushed. I just want to make sure everyone is aware of this.

    How many players are too many?

    I agree. My daughter and a couple have. The reason for a meeting this weekend. It’s one of my concerns. And my daughters. And others. The new coach is well qualified but we need to hear the answers to the questions.

    How many players are too many?

    I agree. I just wanted to hear others experiences. I’m not sure of the new coaches philosophy. My daughter is the solid 2 pushing the 1 so I’m sure she’ll get her innings. But we aren’t a national team. Local playing some showcases. Just wanted input on how some coaches do it and parents...

    How many players are too many?

    My daughter is probably the 2. Pushing for the 1. I posted this because the old coach just had a life change event that she had to move and the new coach hasn’t had time to get us all together. I have no idea her thought process just yet. My DD likes her. She’s been in the dugout the last two...

    How many players are too many?

    I just thought it was funny the reason to take 4….lol. And again, I’m not totally against the 4 pitcher scenario, we’ve just always carried three. I’m just curious as to how it works for other teams. We have our team meeting this weekend and this post gives me alot of questions to ask.

    How many players are too many?

    Definitely aren’t playing tournaments like that. A mix of local tournaments and a few showcases. I’m still learning about the goals and path the new coach wants to take.

    How many players are too many?

    So why not just take three so no one quits?

    How many players are too many?

    OK. How does that work. I’m sure you play more tournaments? I’m not against competition. I’m all for it. That’s one of the things I want answered from the new coach, but I do have concerns.

    How many players are too many?

    Definitely not traveling to national tournaments. Half the team has college aspirations. And those will be D2/D3 schools. And that includes the three current pitchers. Not sure of the rest.

    How many players are too many?

    I don’t know….I’d like to see her pitch one pool game and maybe play IF a game. I’m good with best lineup in bracket play. But I think everyone should get an opportunity to show what they can do during pool play. I understand the dynamics of it all. I’m good with her not playing the field the...

    No. She currently gets playing time at corner IF.

    How many players are too many?

    My DD really wants to return to her team. Non parent coach is leaving but she really likes the new non parent coach. Problem is old coach only carried 3 pitchers. New coach wants to carry 4. New coach also wants to carry 13-14 girls, so field time will be limited when she doesn’t pitch. Thoughts?
