But what about the coaches daughters that if not lets just say pitching goes to first then they decide to pitch her and then goes to a different position all in the same game and never gets sat do you think thats fair? .
No, fstptchbat, I don't always agree that your scenerio (which I have witnessed before) is necessarily fair. However, if the pitcher is one of the best nine in the other position then yes. I beleive that ALL (including pitching) positions are up for grabs each week. My dd pitches, but she also plays SS and played 3rd base last year. I don't totally agree with " number 1 or number 2 in any position. I believe that each practice is different. Some kids are dead on in their chosen postion in practice one night and totally off the next. But you go and give 110% where ever you are put.
My dd is a player that when she's pulled off pitching she's put into the field at 3rd or short. If she struggled on the rubber and is visibly upset she should be on the bench not the field. I think coaches are not only thinking defense they are also thinking offense. If you put her on the bench you remove her bat from the lineup. There is a lot to consider and I would never want to be the one to make those decisions. Fortunately my dd is one of the better players, but she busted her butt to get there with private instruction in pitching, hitting, and fielding. But there are definately times that she should be riding the pine.
