Didn't mean to rip high school baseball as a whole--Mainly the summer version--with my boys 15U summer team not able to get much practices as a team because of scheduling around High school summer ball which doesn't practice either according to all the other dads.
Playing games is great and fun but I believe it takes many hours in practice to be good in games. I would much rather watch a game than practice for 2 hrs but I beleive 2-3 team practices a week would benefit them more.
My sons summer team coach is great and gives him lots of one on one which is great--really great. But getting the whole team for infield work and such is difficult--almost impossible. I do what I can but nothing beats orginized team practices. JMHO
