And you know this how? The best advice I was given years ago when I complaigned. My assistant who had coached top teams for years and came out of retirement to work with team had asked me, "Why do you care? Let's just worry about our own pitchers and let them play the game."
You are wasting entirely too much energy worrying about a 12 year old girl's pitching in a C tournament.
I disagree. And I figured some here would bring up the point that its a 12u 'C' tourney. I ask you; do 12 year olds matter? Does the fact its a C tourney matter? Should my team be at a disadvantage and not care about losing because they aren't older and more skilled? As a head coach, I feel it's my duty to teach my kids the rules, and the other team should follow them as well. And the quote of "why do you care?" is ridiculous in my opinion. We should never care that the other team breaks the rules and has an advantage? Ok for you I guess. But I don't coach that way.
