[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely check out other clubs. We found out too late that once a club pigeonholes your kid there's no way to change their minds. The smart families leave when they see this happening.[/quote]

I don't know about softball, but in basketball some clubs have multiple teams and will move kids around if your kid has talent, they will try to keep her.  Though, this might be the other side of a pigeonhole issue.  In soccer/basketball it is customary for elite teams to poach kids.  Our new team has some of the same issues, half the coaches/team leadership have amazingly talented daughters, but there is one that isn't so great.  He's a good guy though and all the girls love him and really enjoy practice (except maybe his daughter who needs the conditioning), doesn't favor his daughter much.  It's about as good as it gets.  Without paying for coaching, and even then, probably better than most the paid coaches around, in terms of confidence and team building.  Find a coach like that, but seriously a bad coaching experience can take a while for a kid to get over.[/quote]
