Yes it is more about this then not paying. Fine with paying and have spent thousands on teams, lessons, gear, travel and all the rest. What I don't like is having to shell out a thousand or more on a flyer in the Fall. If the team is well established and this is the team we want to be and fortunate enough to get an offer then you commit and pay.

When we were looking for a new team we picked up with a couple before deciding. We chose the one that did NOT offer us a free spot, over the one that did. Definitely not about money. It was about feeling lied to in the fall and wanting to be as sure as we could we ended up with a good fit. Coaches can say whatever they want, but you don't really know until you see them in action, and it's different playing with them versus just observing them from afar. Plus, you find out how your DD likes the other girls, which at least for us is also a consideration.

The last time my dd had a two to three month break was when she was 9. What we did was take her to a strength and conditioning classes. Basically it was just a fun type of drills they did to prep her for spring. Not softball related at all. Had kids from all sports there working out in a class. Best 125 a month I spent.
