My GDD played in a three day tournament last weekend in which her team played seven games. She left Monday and did a four day intense softball camp. Next week her team will practice on Wed. and then do a travel overnight tournament on Sat-Sun. The team will take two days off on Mon and Tues (although she will probably want to see her personal batting coach on Mon night). On Wed. the team starts a local five day tournament with 41 teams entered in her 12u group. She just informed her dad that after this tournament, on Mon, she wants to do a five day day camp at a local college. The next week personal coach on Mon and two team practices before they head to the beach for a seven day world tournament.
This sounds like a lot of softball, especially in this southern heat and humidity. She does eat right and hydrates really well. She loves softball and always gives 100%, 100% of the time.
I am concerned about her health and safety. What is your opinion of this much softball for a 12yo? What about my health and safety trying to keep up with her?
