FungoHighly Regarded and Beloved Old Timer

I concur with TRHit and j2h6 about playing up. j2h6 says: “If you think he’s going to get enough playing time ---“ . I would go a step farther. I suggest you go back to the coach and ask basically the same questions you pose to us. Parental involvement (and talking to coach) is acceptable in helping your 14 year old son decide where to play in my opinion. A 14YO usually has no income and cannot drive himself back and forth to practice and games. Parents are very involved at this age and are asked to make some major sacrifices. You have every right to understand what the coaches’ “plans” are for your son.
