12U Ervin - A mix of 2000/2001. Rob is one of the best coaches in the area with the younger age groups, expect lots of defense fundamentals, aggressive baserunning, small ball execution, ect... He is intense, definately has his own style. Constantly coaching/instructing during tournaments which some may perceive the wrong way (takes one to know one) and will have a very agressive tournament and travel schedule. Bottom line, his teams always compete and your daughter will get better playing for him.
12U Kahwaty - A 2000 team. Have not coached against current staff so cannot comment, Strong nucleus of girls who have been together for 3 plus years, currently in semi-finals at Brenda Marsh tournament in SoCal winning two 1-0 games in bracket play. This will be one of the best 12U teams in NorCal in the spring.
12U Mendez - A mix of 2000/2001. Mark helped me coach the 2011 season, helped our 10u the 2012 season, and started the 12U team this fall. He played professionally for the Yankees, does not have a daughter/relative on the team and will teach the girls the game. He will bat his line up on Saturdays and develop kids in multiple positions. Solid coach and team.
