Ok, so our Peaches merged with the Carolina Xtreme and in my last post I said I had a feeling we haven't seen the last of the Peaches uniforms. Well I was right... kind of. The merger fell through when none of the Xtreme players showed up for tryouts... thus the PEACHES are back!!! Unfortunately for us it is only the 14U Peaches. No 12U team. I was kind of bummed because the 12u team was never even mentioned in the tryout messages posted on the various fastpitch message boards. It was almost like the 12u team was an afterthought. It seems that there were about 6 or 7 14u players already AND they decided to move 2 other 12u players up to pretty much give them a full team. That left us 12u parents looking for a team. It sucks but that's the way it goes. I know the coach was trying to merge with someone else to keep the 12's but when that fell through it felt like they were saying "let's just keep the 14's and forget about the 12's". I am sure it is a lot of work to get the required number of players for a team so I cannot fault anyone. Just wish it was different.
I don't know where the other 3 girls will go but I am hoping they will join the team my daughter did. Bubbles is a proud member of the 12U Denver Dazzle. Now let's hope everything goes ok with them!!
