However good Carda and Henderson are or are not has absolutely NO BEARING on the level of the other coaches in 12u. That being said, how many of those coaches in 12u have 8 or more years of coaching competitive SOFTBALL? How many of those 12u coaches know what a player playing D1 need to look like at the end of their journey? How many of those 12u coaches even know what the top pitchers/ss in the game look like? How many of those 12u coaches will know the dedication it takes for a kid to reach their potential? I have no idea the answer to my questions... but I know those 2 will know.
In addition, just because a coach played at a high level themselves, also does not automatically make them a good coach that can both teach the game, and manage in game situations.
Now did the 2 coaches mentioned above have great players on their teams? hell yea. Socal Athletics have won 3 straight premier titles... I am pretty sure the talent on their rosters had more to do with that, then the coaches superiority over the opponents coaching.
