Ever since we decided to leave my 10 year olds team, we have been trying to figure out where to place her. Her being so tiny has thrown a few coaches. All have said they would love her on their team next year when their older players move up. Since she weighs a good 50-75 lbs less than most those girls, I can see their worry. She is currently about 4'4" and 68lbs.
We have managed to narrow it down to three teams and I am hoping to get some advice on which one we should maybe pick. She really enjoyed playing with all the teams and liked the coaches when she went to her tryouts. She has been offered the head catcher position on all three teams. We do have another tryout on Sunday for a 10u A team. However until we meet them and see how she does, I don't want to factor them in just yet. If she stays in 10u, this will be her third year. If she moves to 12u, it will be her first year.
1st team is a first year 12u C team filled with newer players. It is close to home, less than 5 minutes away, and they don't really travel more than an hour away. Most of their games will be local, with a few tournaments.
2nd team is a 2nd year 10u team that is B rated. They travel and are about 20 minutes away. They will play 15 tournaments starting in the middle of March.
3rd team is a 2nd year 10u team that is also B rated. They are 35 minutes from our house. They travel also but will only be playing 3 tournaments a month.
