So this is DD third yr. in TB. and first yr. at the U12 level. Our TB organization has U10, U12, U14 etc. teams. There was a very competitive and stressful tryout process last fall to make this U12 team. It wasn't a guarantee if you played U10 TB for this organization that you would make the U12. So, all the girls that tried out busted their tail. There were a few U10's that didn't make the U12 team.
So, indoor winter practice was held once week all winter. Again, the girls that made the team busted their tail in the gym and the two pitchers also hit the gym on two/tree additional days a week. ( one being my DD )
Fast forward to this week and we finally get outside to practice and all of the sudden there are TWO girls on the team that did NOT try out or bust their tail in the gym all winter. One did play last year on this same U12 team but decided not to try out this past fall. She pitches and plays IF. The second is a middle school player with no TB experience. Obviously, they are both very good players.
My question is this. Would I be out of line to express my displeasure with this move? These girls didn't try out or hit the gym but they are gonna take two spots from the girls who did bust their tails and end up riding the bench?
Any thoughts/ Advice?
