I have been given conflicting information regarding tb and rec, and the need to choose one by March 31. My DD has no interest in all stars, but would like to finish the rec season and still play tb. What is the rule.

But dont let her play too much, overuse injuries and burnout happen way too often. Its better if you only let her touch a softball for about ten minutes a week. Then wrapp her in bubble wrap and put her where you can keep her safe. After she eats dinner, make sure you ice her down.

Kind of facing the same thing. So Cal. ASA rule states to be eligible for All-Stars (tournament) play. 1) Teams shall not have any players who have participated on a travel type team after March 31st. 2.) Teams shall not have more than four players who have participated with a travel type team at any time after February 1st of the current year. I would check your Rec league to see if they have any additional rules governing travel ball players when it comes to being selected on tournament. I would also find out if there are more travel ball players who plan on tryout for All-Stars, legally the team can only carry four if they played past Feb 1st. Lastly, find out what proof you need to show that your DD quite the TB team before the deadline; TB coaches release or copy of an email. For ASA, you can play both, but will forfeit the right to play Rec All-Star after March 1.

Actually, I'm much MORE ignorant than this post fairly represents.

The only rule that seems to matter is you have to let the more "experienced" posters on the board tell you how to raise your kid, otherwise you'll be branded as an idiot.
