Parents: If your child can't find 30 mins outside team practice to work on their game daily, then they're just interested in success and they're not really committed.
Which is OK.
Just help them find the thing/sport they are interested in and will commit too.
Can’t agree with this statement more from a coach I respect very much in @SkylarTMeade
If you go to JUCO that means you love baseball
JUCO also develops toughness better than any other level
It’s a PRIVILEGE to play college baseball at ANY level!

As a baseball scout, there are two concerning hitting characteristics with HS & College hitters that stand out more today than ever before.
1) No Plan At The Plate
Successful hitters don’t just hope to get a hit—they know what pitch they’re hunting, they exercise zone awareness, they know what part of the field they’re trying to use, they know how to work counts, and how they’re going to attack pitch to pitch. They have a plan, they don’t just “wing it.”
If you fail to plan—then plan to fail.
2) Lack Of Competing In The Box
Every pitch is a battle. Fighting off tough pitches. Refusing to get beat. Making the pitcher earn every out. Competing in the box isn’t about the “result”—a hitter can go 0-4, but have four quality at bats. Competing in the box is about your approach, focus, and effort every single pitch.
Yes, swing operation and talent matters, however a “plan” and a “competitive” mindset in the box separate good hitters from the rest.
Never forget . .
Success is never owned. It is only rented, and the rent is due everyday!
