Hi all, been lurking a while, learning a lot. My DD is going into 11U starting this fall, getting more serious and starting to upgrade her equipment. We got her a 12" A500 Siren last season and it served her very well in 10U. It's very comfortable for her, but I think it's getting pretty floppy. It has always been very soft and light, required no real break-in at all. She does well with it and still likes it. She is young enough that she is not really set on where she will focus... she really likes 1B, but pitches some and otherwise plays all over, and we're not sure where her new 11U team will use her primarily yet.
Should she get started breaking in a nicer utility type glove that would be adequate for all over the field if not perfect for a specific position? Any recommendations?
Or should we wait a bit to find out more about where she might play? (I'm leaning not wait, because there's likely a lot of playing and developing before that is truly figured out).
Budget is flexible, really interested in "bang for the buck" or where/when to scope out a deal among the best options (like fall sales).
