So if left to my own devices, we would try to do everything and that just won't be any fun or good for either of us.
I have a 10U DD who is entering her 4th season of Rec. ball in the Spring. She has made lots of strides and most of it was made last Fall and Winter in our basement when her father was deployed between the Fall and Spring season. We just did a lot of everything and some of it I am sure I did a lot wrong, but everyone remarked how much she had improved over the winter.
So this year I want to try and set some realistic goals for us. A plan so that we all know what we are doing and when. She is taking pitching lessons each week and throwing in between. I talked to the PC last night about working in 1 hitting and 1 fielding lesson a month(can't afford much more on top of pitching) and he was very open to working with us--and she loves him.
Should we work on the things she does wrong and correct those first. She basket catches most of the time and her over-hand throwing is not where it should or work on new things like better defense and the mental game?
I know we can't accomplish it all. Is it better to perfect a few things and build or try and make her more well-rounded??
Thanks for your input.
