My dd's team this year basically decided they wanted to stick together and told their coach that where ever he was going to coach next year, that's where they were going.

I am ok with players being courted by other teams as long as they honor their one year commitment. Let's face it - each year players come and leave. If you treat the girls right and understand the goals of each of your girls, then they will stay if your team and coaching style matches their goals. Actually, I think that some turnover is good. It is a small community and as long as they do it the right way, everyone understands. I personally rarely recruit. But depending on the level of organization you join, it supports drastically different goals. So I say let your players play as a pick up with other teams. Be confident that they will come back if it is a good fit.
Coach Murph
agree 100%
I agree. Let your results and coaching be able to attract good ball players. There's a female Stingray coach you have to watch snatching players during the seaon while running off her own players!!!
Is their a unwritten rule when it comes to Hitting and Pitching coaches recruiting kids for certain Teams or should they stay partial?? Or if they start an organization? How do I let the kids go to him/her if they are now affiliated with an organization?

You approached me too about a player and it was taken as a compliment!Coach Murph even gave a heads up I should think about sending a player to your team also.Took it as a compliment.
How about coaches posting tryouts 2 weeks into a season. If the coaches can do it why can't the players? Was a part of what we thought was a very good situation until the coach talked to a our high school jv coach, he preceeded to tell them that my daughter had no chance of playing varsity as a sophmore and he immediately turned on her. He then treated her bad and tried to get her to quit! Little does he now know that she is in line to start varsity next year for a very good D2 program. She has already been contacted by 3 different programs to come play for them. The worst part is she really enjoyed the girls on the team... guess he should of used some common sense instead of listening to him!
I was at a tournament this weekend, where I witnessed something that I thought was very tacky. While talking to coaches from another team between games, along with one of their players, a coach from another team approached and commented to the player that she should be wearing his uniform next season. That was't the first contact from that team at the same tournament. Is this ethical ? Or am I just "Old School" thinking a team attracts players to tryouts by playing good ball with an organization with a good reputation? Just did'nt think it was right to recruit during play at tournaments; and especially so rudely in front of the players current coach!
