It’s up to my granddaughter to decide. V coach has given her two weeks to decide, just before the games begin.- Is getting at bats in JV better than no at bats in V only?
- Did she bat 1.000 last year in JV?
- Is she able to practice with V to get to know coaches expectations?
I would encourage her to do both. I would use the JV playing time as a change to develop a "your the best player out there and need to lead the team that way" mentality and, as you mentioned, use the V practices and (limited) playing time to understand the challenges and expectations against better competition.
AND, I would take your ego out of the equation (a lesson I am still forced to re-learn from time to time)
At the end of the story, do you have any say in the matter or is it purely up to the coach?
