I don't think my son has a whole lot to improve on right now. Anytime a coach has tried to change up his batting or pitching (and he perfected his technique at the MLB center, by the way), they made it worse, not better.

Don't take this the wrong way, but this comment and choice of words may just reveal the problem here.

EVERY 7th grader has a lot to improve on. NOBODY perfects hitting technique, not ever. If your son's coaches are tinkering with his hitting mechanics, and you and he have this attitude, I'll bet the coaches are seeing a kid who is not very coachable.

Nothing will get his rear on the pine quicker than that.
