9 or 10 year olds, 50+ games 6-8 Tournaments, year round practice? I commend you for volunteering to coach youth sports (I hope you are volunteering) Kids definitely need the corp of volunteers in sports & other activities or many of those activities wouldn't be possible....

but really who are you kidding, change the one line to read: We are looking for parents who want their kid to play at an advanced level and are willing to commit to the schedule and fees of a travel team..... because most of the time little Johnny who is 9 has no idea what his parents are commiting him to

Good luck with your team, lets hope that little Johnny isn't burnt out on baseball by the time he is 12

Definitely a volunteer!!. Have been for years. I truly appreciate your opinion. Our primary goal is to have fun. As a kid and now as a coach, games/ tournaments are where the fun is not practices. This is why that was outlined. Finally even though you would think the fees to be high, it is a mere $150 for the year. This includes fall ball, winter workouts and spring season/tournaments. Other travel teams in the area have far higher fees but with our strong community assistance/sponsorships and great parents we are able to offer all of this for the cost of a traditional 10-12 game in house program.
