The Refine Edition focuses on the stage when everything begins to shift — her skills sharpen, her identity forms, competition increases, and emotions run deeper. Parenting during these years isn’t just about softball; it’s about navigating change with wisdom, patience, and steady guidance.
Across 16 insightful chapters, this Playbook helps parents understand how to encourage growth without adding pressure, support independence without stepping away, and guide their daughter through the mental, emotional, and physical transitions that define the 12U–14U experience.
Refine isn’t about perfection — it’s about preparation for what comes next — Recruiting.
