Looking for info on 12u teams in Sacramento.

[ERA 0.00]

Make the drive to Stockton. Grapes SN. IMO one of the best 12u coaches. Always a competitive team.

Depends if your daughter is an 00 or 99 and what level player she is. If she is coming out of Rec?... might want to get your feet wet with a team that plays more of a IFA schedule like a Elk Grove Thunder Or Lady Spartans and is looked at as a B team.

A few good tweener teams like Foothill Gold Nickell or even Mizuno Noe would be a good start if she is an 00 and you think she is a little better then your average All Star Player.

Sac Plague???? You can go pay a minimal fee for a work out with Mr Smith and find why you should RUN FAR FAR AWAY!!!

00 With Comp expeirience and is ready to compete.
Heat Cota has played very good in Fall looks like they have made a great transition to 12u good coaching staff.
Mizuno Lep Solid coaching Played at a high level in Spring. Started really playing well the end of Fall. Don't think you could go wrong there.
Hype Cobian Another team who played very good in Spring Hot and Cold in Fall. Coaching seems to be pretty good. Only question would be that the Org. Doesn't seem to do much for its teams.
Breeze 00 Strong team qualified for Nat's. BINGO is NOT a Bad thing. Lots of Drama seems to follow the Org and questions on if the coach will be there after try outs.
Lady Magic Well it's Magic probably enough said there. Guess it just depends on what they get for try outs. With out a doubt prob the most expensive Org to play for

If She is a 99 and really ready to Compete.
Mizuno Garcia Great Coaching team has been Kicken Butt If they have any spots???
Heat 99 Has competed well against the Top Teams Thomas seems to be a pretty straight up coach
RR Gold Miller If you dont mind a little drive Miller has been strong all Spring and fall
Grapes SN Again if you don't mind driving a little bit. most think she is the best coach in 12s... Hard to argue
Mizuno StoneAgain good coaching based out of Elk Grove if you are south. Team has won a couple tourneys in Fall and looked Great last weekend.
Breeze 99 Well there is Bingo thats about it.
Hype Emmerson Heard rumors of issues but the coaching seems pretty good and who knows sometimes rumors are just that.

What ever you do don't be affraid to ask the coach where he see's your daughter's skill level compared to the rest he is picking up. Go to try outs with questions that are important to you.

Feb to Aug is a long time to be unhappy!!

In reference to the Breeze 00 coach jumping ship...absolutely untrue. This viscous rumor was most likely started by a parent of a former player. The hard facts are Coach Madison WILL be attending tryouts this Sunday at Rosemont High and IS committed to leading this team to a competitive spring/summer season.

Nice first post.

I like the break down Bleacher Bug... Cordova Fury and Sac Hitters would be a couple of pretty good Tweener programs. If she is younger there are a few 00 teams still slumin it down in 10's like Drop Zone and SB Thunder (not sure where they are located). If you have a younger daughter just getting in to TB might be some good choices.

WhoRyou. Might be right you know how rumors go!!!
With this much talk I would be very suprised if this was rumor or coming from a former parent tho. I have heard this from a number of coaches. people within other Org's, as well as a coach who put in for the spot and was told "No they had the Alum and and coach's already picked". I know one coach had a daughter who was on Heat Cota during Fall. From what I have been told He and the Breeze coach work together or are pretty good friends of some sort. Wouldn't be the first time a coach had a try out and left after. Happened just this last fall in Stockton.

Sounds like your close to this so hope it is just rumor. Best of luck...

Rule number one of Travel Ball!!! Cover your Daughter's Butt...
