Len Len, my younger son has continued to play travel ball and Little League. It is every Little League coach's dream to have a travel ball player on his team and will usually be selected in the first round of the "draft". Your child will have to be at a certain amount(75%?)of games to make All Stars, if that is important to you and your son. It will be frustrating to the other parents when your child misses a practice or game for travel ball and then starts in his LL game when he does show up. We have been there. You will see improvement in your child by all the practice and games...even the weakest Little League player gets better by the end of the season. That said, you will get probably better coaching and game playing with your travel ball team. You get better by playing with/against better teams. But, if you can do both timewise, do it. It wasn't until this year when my younger son, playing at the Junior level in Little League (age 13) felt very frustrated with the level of play on the field since he had already been playing and pitching on the "big" field wiht his travelball team. Also, when he missed a travel ball practice for a Little League game, his travel coach asked me how many hits he got that night...I told him he went 3 for 3 (three hits). I thought that sounded pretty good until the coach told me the other players that did show up for practice got 100-150 hits each in practice. My son may play one more year at the Junior level, and it will be a juggle if he makes his high school JV team. At 11 years old, I would try to continue Little League at least through the Majors level (age 12). We went as a family to Williamsport to the LL World Series this summer and my 13 and 15 year old sons both loved it!
