Reply to "What's Wrong With Youth Sports Today? The Adults!"

Callaway,

I hear what your are saying and that was the standard response from the "board members" for our local league. Let's face it, the daddy's want control of their son's fate in baseball.

My recommendation for any league who wants to eliminate "daddy ball" in their local league is this: Phase the new system in an age group where you can do it. It is a start and you can build on it. After all, the truth of the matter is that rec ball is not going to "make or break" your sons baseball abilities.

Why should rec ball suffer at the expense of controlling dads?

Rec ball should be about values and fun as so stated by the policies of the charters they play under.

Knowledge is Power! Thank you Mavens and HSBBWEB!
