I found out yesterday that ½ our fall ball Team would be moving up to 12U, or in 1 case a travel team, in the spring. The girls that are moving up need to because of their age.
I know there are changes from fall to spring but ½ the Team?
Our fall ball Manager ended up in a tough position, I do not think she realized how good her DD is. She planned to manage in the fall then the spring but her DD is off to a traveling team. It was her 1st time managing and I do not think she enjoyed it as much as she thought she would. Her DD is a really good player and both of them have aspirations for her future so I would have made the same decision she did.
Now we have no manager and ½ our Team is gone. The only good news is it appears that my DD will be our #1 pitcher, wait that is not good news either. She is a better pitcher then most people give her credit for but we are sending her to pitching lessons for the 1st time ever this January.
Approximately 80% of our innings pitched in fall are leaving the team; my DD threw the other 20%.
Apparently I was under the mistaken impression that fall ball was to get a team together for the spring.
My DD has been recruited by a few travelling teams and would be a top player on any of their teams but she would not be able to pitch. She wants to pitch so we are staying in rec ball until she gets a little bit better at pitching.
I am frustrated and am not sure what to do going forward.
Fun of rec ball I guess.
