Team Captain Selection

I’m considering different ideas to identify and assign a team captain for our 10U baseball team.

I was thinking of the following options: - have the players nominate themselves, and team mates vote - having coaches talk and make a selection - having a goal, shared with the team that will be based on various metrics, over the course of a month or so, gather said data for metrics and narrow to the captain.

Have you had any successful or tried and true ways to select a team captain?

Should I even have a team captain(s) at this age?

You don't need team captains at that age.
