Div 1 coaches. Ooooh lala! It's like fishing lures being designed to catch fishermen. We have had them flow through our program. Girls like them sure. Did their skill set improve at a faster rate nope. Did they tell them anything we havent told them a trillion times nope
Teams/players that materially improve are comprised of girls that put in the time OUTSIDE of practice. Repetition repetition ... Having a team that is 50/50 in terms of outside commitment isn't near as much fun I know as we just had one. We just fixed it though
Reading your other posts and given the fact that this is the last yr before you have to start seriously putting your best foot forward (99) why wouldn't you put her on a team where she would maximize her mound time (if that's her main goal)? Any good 99 team Will have #1/2 bracket pitchers. If they have a weak #2 they will be looking to upgrade all yr. Go to a lesser team to get the mound time
The team you are referring to had a nice draw in pcb. If they kept their main pitcher how much mound time do you think you will see?
The second team you are referring to doesn't have one yet but you can bet they will keep looking all yr.
My simple advice is Focus on your daughters development this year not her trophy case.
