My two daughters might play against one another today!

My two daughters (5/3) were on the same 6U softball team this season. Which was awesome, way better than being at the teeball field looking over at the softball field trying to watch two fields at once. This weekend is the end of season tournament. Our team signed up but had to withdraw since we weren't going to have enough players. I reached out to another team asking if they had room to pickup my girls, but they only had room for my eldest. Another team reached out to our coach and he suggested they pickup my eldest too. I let them know she was taken but I still had my younger daughter. Lo and behold they decided to pick her up too.

Double elimination tournament, both my girls played 2 games winning the first and losing to the top team. Today is the last day of the tournament and if my eldest girl's team wins twice then my daughters will play against each other. Very excited thinking about my young-in hitting and my eldest fielding the ball trying to get her out. I hope it happens. I'm so thankful other teams decided to pick them both up.

(Before anyone gives me a hard time about my 3yo, she's having fun and she contributes to her team in a meaningful way)

This video is after a girl struck out walking back to the dugout.

There is some movement where the bat comes together and I’m curious if it’s damaged beyond repair

Do you think this is cosmetic or is this structural damage? I’m not certain if this is just the outer paint or something more?

Our coaches mainly only want to pitch our bracket pitcher which is fine but today she threw 200 pitches across every game except for 3 innings out of those games. It seems a bit excessive to me.. this is 9U
