Select team!

[Amy in AZ.]

The easiest way is to become a coach in an existing program that has several age groups.

I suggest you first start with an organization that is already established and ask them to help coach a team for the season. Oh and have fun!

I was going to suggest the exact same thing. At this point, it sounds as if she doesn't even know, what she doesn't know, so starting with a support network would be the way to go.

my $.02?

16U and 18U are the most challenging age groups (especially as a start-up).

First, there normally are not a lot of girls who are not committed to a team
as they aspire to play in college at these ages.

Second, pitching-there are not a great number of 'elite' pitchers waiting around for teams.
Coaches are constantly recruiting at this age group and pitchers are a coach's #1 need.

Is this a serious request? From the tone it sounds like someone is yanking our chains.

Lets not get rude, im asking or help. Not rudeness. For those of you who care, Ive got 4 commited pitchers two at the highschool varstiy level, one who has really good movement but only plays select becase she doesnt like the highschool ddrama, and the last is a fairly decent one. Ive also got to select catchers, who just left teams.

I really wanted to start with 12, but the girls that want to play for me are too old! Competitive really, but some fun. I dont want to set my goals too high but i want to maybe, maybe hit nationals next year, because i know right now its too early for that.

Omg, thanks! your like the only nice one here! and okay so parents? I should watch out for them lol?

 

[danileevasquez]

Look im extremly serious about this! I know it still may be early, and if i have to wait to start one until next year i will! But id like to have as much help, facts, etc. on this as possible!! any bit helps honestly.
