There are a few basic rules to selecting your team and
none of them deal with the ability of the girl trying out. You will have
a great season, if not a winning one, if you follow these simply rules:
�
1. Draft parents who have a pool.
- You need this for your end-of-the-season party and you'll be a hero!
2. Draft parents who own a pizza or burger place. - Another way to be a hero.
3. Draft the richest parents.
- It could be your team sponsor.
4. Draft the second richest parents. - Just in case.
5. Draft parents who own their own (moderate to large)
business. - Same as #3 or 4.
6. Don't draft split parents.
- Their kid will only make half the games. Exception: If it is the worse
kid in the draft, pick 'em.
7. Draft a parent who knows how to keep score. - Always a valuable parent.
8. Draft parents who own vans.
- Helps to carpool your players to the games.
9. Draft parents who never come to practice but come
to all games. - One practice and you'll understand
why.
10. Draft parents who are on the recreation board. - Always nice to have when you need something.
11. Don't draft parents who are on the recreation
board. - Their kid will always have to play the
infield no matter how bad they are.
12. Draft the best looking parent. - At least those ugly season won't be THAT bad.
13. Draft parents who know NOTHING about the game. - That what you look smarter.
14. Draft parents with college degrees. - Maybe their kid won't spend the season in summer school.

This should leave you room for 2-3 players BASED ON ABILITY
shown at tryouts. No promises made or implied about your won-loss record
however.
