Not that many conversations, just a lot covered in each conversation. I'm sure I'm not perfect. I do ask questions when the story keeps changing (different information from Director and Coach), the information is incorrect (coach telling director things that are not true), or why fundraising being targeted to just a few families, no one puts anything in writing so information gets distorted (sometimes intentionally), ....etc ....
The coach told me directly "they won't see the field, I have to get the others ready for Florida" and will be removing us from 2 more tournaments.
OK fine, finally some honesty. But if you obviously don't need or want my kids as players, just tell us and not demand money for the privaledge of sitting your bench.
If this was skill based, fine. But it isn't, it is $$ based.
We have no problem with team going to Flo without us...I have fundraising stuff here to help that effort.
We just wanted our 7 tournaments with our team.
Anyway ...
Will take some time to think about what we want to do, I may have a part time job (not a lot of money) but that may help with future softball funding. We may or may not pursue other options. Right now we are "tired".
I realize that money is important in succeeding to participate and perform in travel softball, but I have to believe there is still a good option somewhere for us.
