So we live in a very small community where everyone knows everyone and everyone is at the local ballpark each night. Tonight good example boys HS, Girls HS, LL and TEE Ball all going on at the community park tonight.
My DD plays alot of A/B TB and is a solid SS that just happens to pitch 3rd string for her TB team. She pitches for the local 12u rec team to keep her friends happy she is 11 and in 6th grade. She takes lessons twice a week but is realizing she like playing SS and at 5' nothing isn't going to make it as a pitcher.
Well she is very stressed now because at the HS game she was told that she is the oldest girl in the community that can pitch other than our 10th grade pitcher. The next girls behind her that is learning is in the 4th grade. So my DD that bears the weight of the world in her little mind is stressing that she has to play and pitch for the HS team when she was about to give it up.
What should I tell her so she gets over it for right now and realizes that a long time away and alot of things can change in three years? Anyone else live in a small town like this?
