[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ATB is a non-profit program.

If your player is pretty athletic, listens to instruction, and likes playing baseball even after practice is done, then travel is potentially a good fit.  One description I've heard, to determine if travel baseball is a good option is if your player likes to play and practice more, even after finishing a game or a practice.

Having had 2 players go through ATB, the program is really good.  They think about skills progression, baseball IQ and building skills appropriate for each level.  So you really see it come together at about 11u-12u.  There's a new coach at the 13u level who is amazing--really positive and really fantastic.  His father is an Arlington baseball legend and I've seen him at the field.

ATB is pretty loyal to players and a solid core will stay with the team year after year. The paid coaches has really helped at the upper levels, as we still see some of the parent politics in rec.  If your player might be interested in high school baseball, ATB will give your player a chance to work with some of the high school coaches, as some of them have helped as specialists to ATB teams in the past.
Coach Healy at W-L has worked with some of the 10u, 11u teams for a practice or a clinic.

Totally agree with your assessment of what makes a good travel player. You have to put in the work off the field as well. Coach Healy also works with the storm players in summer camps.  [/quote]
