Having had my DD play Travel Ball for several years and for a couple different organizations I am still amazed by the behavior of some parents who seem to do more to prevent thier childs growth rather than help to foster it. So I have a few suggestions for THOSE parents.
1. We all know your daughter is a good player or she wouldn't be on the team
2. If you must speak badly about another player or the coaches don't do it in front of your DD
3. It takes 9 to play, you win together and lose together. Your daughter can't play by herself
4. If you are going to constantly contradict her coaches instruction please form your own team
5. Just because she plays (fill in position) on her in house team doesn't mean she will play it on the travel team
6. Playing time is earned through hard work, it is not a right because you paid $XXX to be on this team
7. If you have a problem speak to the coaches directly, don't piss and moan in the bleachers
8. Make the most of your experience, kids will grow up quick, memories last forever
9. Teach your DD's to compete with class, they will follow your example
10. When the tourney is over let it be over. Don't make your DD replay every minute of the weekend on the ride home!
Feel free to add any I may have overlooked ?;D
