Information needed, looking for new team for this coming season 18u top available

[coachtomv]

Reaching out to my friends on this forum for some help and advice.

My daughter Madison is looking for a strong 18u team this coming season. She is a 2020, 2001, and is looking to get recruited, so needs a strong showcase schedule and contacts for college coaches is a plus.

She has played predominately on the Outlaws since 10u, and has been starting SS the past several seasons in travel and in HS, but is a ball player. Anyone that has coached or played with/against her can attest. She was 1st team all middle infield conference and golden glove.

She took this past summer off to get herself away for a bit and to see what she wants to do for college, she played high school ball and played for our WWAST charity teams and helped coach the younger ages for that. She has decided she wants to pursue a few schools that have her major and we are on the lookout for a team and an organization that can help.

I have a large number of friends and contacts that I am reaching out to, but at this age there are a limited number of opportunities, so I wanted also post here to see whats out there. Looking through forums and such is unclear at best.

Some of the more obvious organizations and teams we are familiar with and have reached out to. In case nothing shakes out, what are some of your opinions on some teams or organizations looking for players that fit our criteria?

If you not comfortable posting a response, PM me, or text 440-487-0486.

From her HS coach:
Coach Tina Downing: “Madi came in as a freshman last year, earned the role of starting shortstop and hasn’t looked back since. She has amazing talent and drive, and puts it all out on the field every play of every game. She makes diving stop after diving stop to help hold down the left side of the infield. She has a great mind for the game and is a vocal leader before, during, between and after each play. Her prowess, dedication and determination are invaluable to our team.”


Thanks in advance!

Have you checked with Team Ohio at all? DD played for them a couple of years ago, and a friend this year. Good tourneys and experience.

Tom- I know you already have my suggestions but I wanted to throw in a plug for Madi (not that her playing doesn’t speak for itself). Not sure why others haven’t yet other than the “looking out for #1” nature of tryout time.
Madi would be a great asset to any team and a very respectful, polite young woman. No drama just hard work and a team player.

Thank you, your Meg is cut from the same cloth for sure.

She had scheduled tryouts for her dream team choice, after previous org did not respond to inquiries on team(s) needing players, but it looks like the coach has retired and the team decided to fold. I'll let that coach announce that here, if he chooses to, out of respect. So, Madi is working on what she wants to do next. Not sure we want to travel many hours for an unkown situation or just play with some familiar faces or some other route.

We are up in the air right now. Some team is missing out on one hell of a ball player I'll tell you that. We will see how it plays out and what she decides to do.

Still looking for the right fit. Have tryout next weekend, but nothing finalized yet.

Will consider subbing possibly as well.

What schools is she interested in?
That may help....

Cincinnati Reds RBI is still looking. They play a mix showcase schedule but have college recruiters that are on site that help the ladies contact coaches. Fees are much cheaper than most travel clubs and there is no organization that comes remotely close to facilities or coaching, training...

Madi has found a team. Thank you everyone that responded.

Her team is doing a very light fall/winter schedule as our pitchers are already playing in College, so she may be available as a sub for teams looking.
