Thanks all for your reply. Here are a few answers to some of the questions.
HS does have a fall program which I'm told will be starting soon. I don't know much about it other than a couple days a week conditioning in the gym. Have not yet heard about outdoor practices or travel games.
On his travel team, he plays every other weekend. 3-4 games depending on how they place and he catches every game with the exception of maybe 2 innings in total between all the games.
If you ask him what position he would like to play - he would say pitcher. Has been saying that since 5yrs old. -but loves to hit. I guess I need to remind him of the PO that comes along with pitching....probably hasn't given that much thought.
Thank you all for your responses. Lots of good food for thought!
