Teaching fundamentals or drilling fundamentals? There is a difference, I think everyone would agree.
Continue getting reps in? Of course. But players at that level should know their fundamentals - even if they don't execute them every time. All the players who played on my teams are now going into HS knowing the fundamentals.
And I have watched plenty of HS, select, college and pro games. Your condescending comment was uncalled for if you wish to be in a polite discourse.
Perhaps you want your son on a HS select team where they will spend 30 minutes talking about relays or the pitcher's fielding assignments. But I don't. My son already knows those things.
