[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This year Fairfax only had a varsity team (not enough kids to form a jv team). The roster was large though. Your DD will probably make the team. Hopefully the program will grow and there will also be a jv team by the time your DD is in hs.

FWIW, all of my DD’s rec teammates made jv or varsity at their FCPS schools.[/quote]

Wow. At my daughter's FCPS school, there is both a JV and (large) varsity team and every single varsity girl plays travel, many on very high level teams, and almost everyone on JV also plays travel. I can only think of one that I do not believe plays travel. [/quote]

There are a lot of have and have-not schools in Loudoun, Fairfax, Arlington when it comes to HS softball.

It's highly correlated with demographics. Basically, wherever the UMC white girls live, those will be the hardest varsity squads to make. That's because softball is predominately a sport played by UMC white girls, whose parents have the disposable income for the team dues, expensive bats and equipment and lessons for specialty positions such as pitching.
