Coaches:
If your BP consists of 1 guy hitting and 9 guys standing in the outfield picking grass, you are failing your team.
You don't need 3-hour practices. You need 90 minutes of high reps and zero standing around.
Use stations. Keep them moving. Efficiency over everything.
@robport We disagree, but not entirely. (Right diagnosis, wrong prescription)
There are many in HS admin who still believe academics come before athletics. We (society) need their voices amplified and they should schedule accordingly.
Youth club sports are the wild west. Trust me.

@robport My 15 years in education & 5 at the Chamber tell me that this is coming.
A 4 day week with longer school days & few extracurricular impacts would be a giant improvement over the current model.
Bachmeier is right to insist that academics come first in any move to a 4 day week.
“Fernando Mendoza is boring off the field, on the field, and that’s why people don’t love it, but I’ll take boring… I believe in him, and he’s easily the number one pick.” - @davidpollack47 gives his thoughts on Fernando Mendoza a week ahead of the draft.
Join us in congratulating Head Coach Pete Dobitz on picking up his 500th win as DHS Baseball Head Coach with the win in Game 2!
Thank you for all your dedication you have poured into all the players that have come through and continue to come through our program!
Tom is correct, but what do we know right?
Parents have extreme FOMO and think that scouts, front office executives, and D1 coaches care about 8U championship rings.
Wait till your kid is 13 before taking the travel ball plunge. Then limit him on how many games/tournaments he plays a year, practice as much as you can, get stronger, and most importantly, give him breaks during the year until he is fully ready to play year around, which is, imo, not until he’s a sophomore in highschool.
Don’t burn him out. It’s a real thing. Anyone who has played professionally can tell you how many of their teammates quit when they are in highschool because they played too much at younger years.
NO EXPANSION. PERIOD.
