[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But why can't the rec league be an "everyone plays" league, given that there are so many options for those who want a more competitive experience?
There are tons of local tournaments and travel teams. 
For the kids who work hard but still aren't very good, we are effectively shutting them out at a very young age. 
My son has never missed a practice or game and we even got some private batting lessons. 
He still mostly just strikes out. 
And he's not great in the infield.  But it's not for lack of trying. 
And yea, we have tried other sports.
I just wish there was room for kids like him, because he's too young to give up on it, and he enjoys the camaraderie and exercise from being part of a team [/quote]

He should play down a level. If most boys his age are AAA he should play AA. DS has friends who are not good and this is what they do. Play AAA as an 11. At 12, if he doesn't pitch he can still play AAA. If he still isn't competitive as a 12 playing AAA, it may be time to find another sport. [/quote]
