Reply to "14-Year-Old Son New to Baseball, Suggestions?"

Thanks for the update UJA (are you a Parliment/Funkadelic fan?)

Just remind your son not to beat himself up if he makes an error, mistake or has a bad game. Baseball is a tough sport to play even for advanced players who have been playing for awhile, let alone someone new to the sport.

I would recommend to focus more time on baseball skills training/playing games in order to learn proper technique and develop baseball IQ. Also make sure he gets some time off from baseball (2-3 months) so he doesn’t get burned out or get injured.

Good luck in finding a team for this summer & fall.
