DD was invited to play with an all area team. Its basically a hand picked team of travel team stand outs. They were only looking at playing two or three tourneys but they were all very large showcases. I paid for a couple uniforms, contributed tourney dues, and spent a ridiculous amount of time scheduling my travel team around these showcases. Not to mention all the time emailing her top schools with her that were to be in attendance and setting up bio and profile pages and skills videos.
Last night at 8pm she decides to inform me that her knee hurts and won't be playing in this weekends showcase!
On one hand I don't want her half assing at a showcase, but I also think its extremely irresponsible to wait so long to make that decision. I was then given the task of calling the HC of this team and inform him that we weren't coming today. (Which put him at 8 BTW)
He made some calls and did find a last second player thank God.
DD has avoided me all day, but we need to discuss this. I'm wondering if this softball ride is running out of gas, and the knee injury is just an excuse to not play with a team that she feels inferior to... Any advise is appreciated.
