Extra Hitter
I have a 12 year old DD that plays competitive ball. She starts her middle school team in the fall. She mainly plays third base (that's the position that coaches always put her at). She likes to play outfield though (probably due to the fact that she grew up playing the game 500 in the front field with brother and cousins).
My question is: I am looking to buy her a quality glove that will last her through middle school and maybe into high school. I think she will most often be put at 3rd base. Should I get her a third baseman's glove ( what size do girls use?) or should I try to get a utility sized glove? Or a third baseman's glove and a separate outfielders? I have noticed that with her at third base, the fastpitch plays are bang bang fast. Hate to inhibite her with to big a glove.
Any thought or suggestions on sizes, gloves, ect? Hate to spend a couple hundred on something she does not need.
Thanks for any help
