[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 6th DD just started playing softball. Hasn't even had a game yet--just a couple of practices and she absolutely loves it. Saying she wants to play in HS. Around here, I feel like you need to start earlier in any sport to play in HS, but maybe the softball teams are not great?[/quote] She is starting a little bit late but not horribly so, especially if she has athletic ability. She won’t make it without playing travel ball, though. Travel will offer more reps and more games. It will more closely simulate high school teams. If she wants to pitch, get her lessons at 643 or something so she doesn’t develop bad habits or injure herself. And get a bucket of balls and tarp with a strike zone in your yard for her to practice when there is no catcher available. — former travel coach, current USA, USSSA, NFHS umpire [/quote]
