[quote=Anonymous]This seems excessive to me. DD is in K and started baseball last spring while in preschool. They had one "game" a week with "team practice" beforehand. (I use both terms loosely . . . . ) Anyway, it was once a week and that was plenty. Our goal was not to start her on a path to becoming a baseball prodigy. It was to try it and see if she liked it. She did, so we considered the experience a success. Then, this past fall she asked to do fall baseball. That was one practice during the week and one game on the weekend. It was a bit tighter for us in terms of scheduling , but felt worth it because we knew already that she liked it. She's now doing indoor baseball practice this winter, which is just an hour on the weekend (no games). My advice is to start with a program that's just once a week to see if they really do like it. No sense in overscheduling yourselves this young.[/quote]
