Should all seniors play (not just bat) during the senior game? My daughter has not had a good season (explained in another thread) and we're not sure her coach will put her in during the senior game. I'm just curious what others have experienced.
My daughter's HS coach told her that the starting lineup has been locked for the season.. He basically told her that there's nothing she can do to earn a spot even though the season has just started. My husband and I are a bit confused about this..I thought the best players were put on the field...
I received this in an email today and thought it had good information in it, so I'm sharing. I had to cut and paste as I didn't know how else to share. The article wasn't online, so I couldn't link it.

My dd committed to play DII softball at Wayne State in Nebraska today. It's been an interesting ride, and I know it's not over until she signs that NLI next year, but it feels good to be at this point. My daughter is beyond excited and we're pretty proud of our little girl! I just wanted to...
My daughter is going to be visiting a school and they have given her the choice of making it an official or an unofficial visit. I thought the school made that choice. :confused: I know with an official visit the school pays for some or all the expenses. We can afford to pay for the trip..Other...
My dd is a 2018 and will be playing DII ball. She has had schools come out and watch her play, coaches are emailing her and have called her. She does have an unofficial visit at the end of the month. From the conversations my daughter has had with coaches, it sounds like many DII are just now...
My daughter is going on an unofficial visit at the end of September. The coach wants her to practice with the team, hang out with the girls and attend a class. They will be scrimmaging with another team, so we'll be able to watch them play an actual game.
This is the most attention our...
My daughter is at PGF this week.. The school she wants to attend is out there and they contacted her TB coach and said they would be out to watch her play on Sunday, but never showed up yesterday.
Here's a bit of background. They have seen her play at another showcase, where she showed very...
We have an Arizona a team heading there next week that needs a pick up pitcher. Still waiting to hear back from the coach. Thought I'd ask here. Im guessing it's something big if they are going.
We are at a camp. Coach wants to take dd on a tour the next day, so we rescheduled our flight for our rd to attend. I'm just curious if this could mean something. Thanks.
We are going to Hemet this weekend and there are 16 different fields the 16's will be playing at. When there are 100's of teams playing, does it matter if you are at the main complex? Is that an advantage? To be honest, I don't even know where the main complex is. Do coaches come with a list of...
My daughter is a pitcher and she's good.. Not elite, but very good. She's a 2018 and we are starting the recruiting season this weekend in Hemet. When she's hitting, she can kill the ball, but when she's in a slump, it's bad. That's where she is right now. How important is it for pitchers to be...
We got an email inviting our daughter to play in some all star game, but I'm guessing this is a standard email sent out to all participants and is a money making gig. Has anyone participated? If so, were there any coaches watching? We can't be throwing money around, but if she can actually get...
My daughter just had her last high school game of the season today...They went 18-0. She plays on JV and they are the first softball team at their school to go undefeated. I think that's pretty cool. She was bummed she didn't make Varsity this year, but I think this made up for it! :D
My dd says she wants to play college ball and wants to go to a D1 school, however, we don't feel she puts in the extra effort to get there. She's a pitcher. Playing D1 ball is a lot of work and we don't think she gets just how much work it takes. My husband and I go back forth on how much we...
My daughter is going to the Louisville IDT at the end of June. Does anyone know if they do a pin exchange at the 14U level at this tournament. I'm having a heck of a time trying to find out.
Thank you! :D
