This post stood out to me!While I dont encourage playing on a bunch teams, sometimes you don’t know about the coaching until you play for them.... we asked many about the coaches we played for and never got the responses compared to what we experienced.
DD played rec from 5-7. At 7 she had been playing machine pitch for two years and was ready to play kid pitch. The rec kid pitch was horrible..she would have gotten nothing out of it so we decided to make the move to "TB". The quality wasn't that bad and was much better than she would have gotten in rec.It is so strange to hear about girls playing TB since 8u. I mean they are 7 and 8 yrs old! I assume there just isn't a local REC league to play so the 8U or 10U TB teams are in essence just REC teams, correct?
