    So I guess nobody was there to get any pictures. Sounds like we are going to have to help comet and shutterbug with their schedules and priorities - just kidding. :astrosmiley2: Maybe next tourny...

    Based on what they have achieved, I think they could compete very well with an older age group. If they are looking for stronger competition that's the only way to go.

    This thread is nuts

    Great record.....hope all the kids are playing when they're older. They've played 50+ games so far this spring....will play more in the fall, I bet. Heck, with a little effort, you can probably get them to 100 games a year!

    8U travel ball????? What's next? 6U? 4U?
    Good Luck!

    and don't forget rec ball... 17 games? so thats 70!!

    :smash:
    the funny thing is.... they are all begging to play more

    we'll hold a tryout for you if you'd like :)

    repetition is only an issue... if its forced, otherwise reps only help. There is a reason why Latin America produces multitudes of MLB players, and none come from Canada- hint- they play 365 days a year and love it. At age 15, a Latin player has seen 3x as many pitches and caught 3x as many balls as the ordinary American. (I know this isn't a baseball forum) but calling out a team that just likes to go play is bush league IMO. So what if they play 50 weekends a year, as long as it's their will.
