JS. You have your kid playing where he needs to. At 13 he needs to see more than just the local baseball. I know your kid wants to play at HS level and maybe further. There are exceptions but most that dont play competitive baseball wont make a good HS team. HS my kid went to would have kids that would be starters on 90% of HS teams get cut. We had a middle infielder get cut because the infield was so talented and crowded and he is playing D2 baseball this year. Do what is best and enjoy the ride. Make the sacrifices, enjoy the out of town stays, eating out together, etc.
And Dale Junior is right. Bring 3 xtra pitchers at least.Last edited by glen; 02-25-2021, 10:51 AM.

that edge-strait team was very good for a couple years then seemed to have broken up and i believe cody dropped his kid back down to his age and has still been coaching, they would be 12u now. great organization, and back then had awesome uniforms and logo.

13u Oilers went 2-0 yesterday, still shaking off some rust for sure.
We had Brock checked out last week and it's tendonitis in his shoulder, he played 2 innings at first yesterday, for the first time ever, and just hit other than that. He has 2 more therapy sessions at Arrosti Monday and Wednesday and hopefully we will have it worked out. We don't play again till the end of the month so he won't be throwing much between now and then.
We play at 2 and 4 today, good luck to all you guys.

I'll jump in this year as we have both boys 10U playing. They play for a fairly new club out of the Woodlands. The South Texas Iron Fins. The boys play on different level teams so it makes for some long practice nights at Scrap Yard. The step son's team went 1-1 in pool play Friday night and play today at 1:15. My other son has his first tourney next weekend. They are playing in the South Texas Super NIT at Scrap Yard. Some decent ball was played, but still a lot of work to do.
Good luck to all today.

We lost our 2nd yesterday to a very good team that we tied on Saturday. We just ran out of pitching, and they hit them where we weren't. All in all a great 1st tournament of the year. Brady played great all weekend, hitting the ball hard to all fields, particularly oppo. He started our 1st game on Sunday and pitched 4 1/3 on 64 pitches and gave up 3 runs.
