Remember the pitcher I told you about? The one who isn't any good and her parents egg her on? Our head coach got an email today from her. This is what he wrote back to me and the other assistant coach:
Assistants,
I got an email from the girl this morning informing me that she will not participate in the high school program this year. She feels that in order to achieve a higher level of skill that she must focus her attention on her spring and summer team. She goes on to say that if in the future we can provide a higher standard of new skill teaching and teamwork that she would consider playing for Rainier. Get ready. It's starting.
Head Coach
You have to understand something. We are a small school, we get what we get. We don't hold tryouts, we don't cut people. The talent you see is the talent we get. We give them the tools to perform on the field, once on the field, it's up to them and how they use those tools.
Last year she quit her spring/summer team because she thought she was better than they were and she wasn't being challenged enough. I think it's because she sat on the bench most of the time. On the plus side, we don't have to deal with her or her parents this year.
