[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son played in the Little League World Series regionals after the winning state championship. He and every kid on his team also play travel baseball and have since they’ve been 9. They play Little league on Saturdays and travel on Sundays (double header each Sunday) in both fall and spring and I’d say that 90% of them take weekly batting lessons as well. Several also have private pitching coaches and some do supplemental strength and/or agility training. The teams they played in the regionals were also compromised entirely of dual little league/travel players..and some from states like NJ and TX were playing even more baseball—up to 5 games a weekend, every weekend in the spring in travel tournaments. The good hitters on our team were hitting 1000 balls a week in batting practice (either through paying an instructor or by their dad). That’s about 2-4 hours per day in the cages, 7 days a week. [/quote] But this is fine. Playing 4 days a week soccer is nuts and playing to win is absolutely bonkers at this age.[/quote]
