PS - We were also very lucky that we were on a TB team that had the goal of getting better by playing against better competition. We did not win many trophies when we were younger, but we pushed our girls to improve. I will never forget when we played in one 10U tournament, and we got put in the losers bracket early and had to win 4 games to get to the championship. We won all 4 games by the thinnest of margins and made it to the championship against one of the best 10U teams in GA from one of the marquee organizations. We lost the championship game 0-7 and at the trophy ceremony our girls were partying like rockstars, while the other team was kind of "meh" because it was probably their 6th or 7th tournament victory.....kind of reminded me of the "Bad News Bears" when the Yankees won the championship, but the Bears were pouring champagne and beer on each other!
Sounds like you were one of the weird ones that stayed with the same organization from 10U through to the end?
