Is her current team holding tryouts and is her spot on the line?
Whose, mine? We have 11 assuming they all stay. He wants one more. Mine is pitcher, 1B, and back up short stop, and I think she's pretty safe. What we really *need* is a catcher, which wouldn't affect my DD's spot. Well, plus my husband's AC which helps![]()
I'll start by saying I have a personal issue of being loyal to a fault combined with being a problem solver at heart.....real bad. I've been working on that.
I'm still in REC. Plan to make the jump to TB in the spring of 2017 (though I don't know if DD will hold out that long). Earlier this year, I started researching what the jump will look like (budget, time, dedication, etc.) and so I took DD to a tryout for a team that was "looking for 2 players". I get there and there were 5 girls there including DD. HC gave the impression that they were only looking to add 2 girls. They had 4 total. They had 2 girls there other than DD at the "team practice". She (HC) talked about how good DD was and how she could make an immediate impact, but a decision had to be made in 24 hours because there were others who could fill the spot. Being on the cautious side, I decided against it. Too much didn't fit for me....thanks to DFP. This was back in August I think. Fast forward to now. They only have 5 girls on their roster and are looking to merge with another organization, but still asking for 2 girls.
Looking at that same message board, it seems like the same teams doing the same posts over and over again. Looking for 1 or 2 more. Private workouts welcome. Everything confidential. I even saw a listing for a 10U team that doesn't even have the HC hired, yet.
ROFL!!! Yeah, that's the one that doesn't have a coach!Did you see the 10U one looking to add a few players to their solid core of girls...they need pitcher, catcher, 3B and middle infielder or something like that. Ummmm. Who's your strong core exactly? I mean, this is 10U we're talking about. If you need pretty much an entire infield I don't see that as a strong core.

When you're a startup org and you don't have a coach (much less AC).....you don't have a solid core.Usually the strong core consists of the DD's of the HC, AC, Team Mom, etc.![]()
