It's about that time! Youngest starts practice next week and oldest will start weekend spring training workouts next weekend. It's been a nice break, but the freezer is full and it's time to get back to work. I look forward to following this thread again this year and good luck to all the kiddos!
We started back last week - got 3 practices scheduled for this week. Not sure how this new team is talent wise. Kinda wish Jax would have chosen the Majors team. Coach seems good though. Big swing analytics guy. Will be interesting to watch it come together.
I would not worry about position played or what division team your kid plays on. Chances are he will not be playing same position later on. My kid didn’t pitch until he was 14. Here he is in 13u. It obvious he would not be catching later on. He had fun and learned the game and liked the group he was with and knew them well.
2 mos since the end of fall ball, and we have our team meeting for spring next week. Made it to the league championship game last year but fell short of winning it all.
We are skipping spring select ball, for this year at least. He's still playing basketball, and there's just plenty of other kid stuff we want to do. We're gonna do our rec league team (which we love). Hopefully our Rec league all star group will be worth playing a tourney or two with, then we may pick up with someone for some summer time stuff.
I'll be checking in here though, good luck to everyone.
