Ok, anyone going? I'm traveling down there with my son for this tournament. With all the teams and fields it may be hard for us to meet up with someone from here, but you never know...

Everyday Dad, I can't speak about those particular teams, but I do know that the Richmond Braves is a solid organization and the Staten Island Orioles appears to run a good ship as well. I know nothing about the NJ Tigers.
Will be attending Jupiter for first time.Not sure what to expect, but sounds like this may go down like walking out of the cornfield type experience for the kid.
2016 will be headed to Ft. Myers as well playing with East Cobb Astros.
Kid is excited to be a part of the experience and let the chips fall where they may.
My son is winging his way down there as I type this.
So many players and so little time! Great event!
I'll be down there with the EvoShield Canes. I will float around to other teams in our organization (EvoCanes 17 North, 17 South, 2017 Prime and 2017 Prospects).
Please stop by and say hi.

I saw Robert two weeks ago and I am sure I will see him down in RSW.
We got to the 'Elite 8' on Monday, but were undone by the Richmond Braves Nationals, 5-1... Congrats to the two teams from Virginia to make the Championship!
redbird5, my son pitched against your squad on Saturday morning! He was the lefty from SoCal that started the 8:30am game for Next Level NY. Small world.

Very small world! Your son is very talented.
Thanks redbird5. I knew he was throwing against them before he flew out there, but I didn't tell him how good your guys were (he's oblivious to other teams and their rankings...just takes the mound and throws). He texted me afterward and said "That team was legit.", so I told him exactly how legit. His reply "I believe it. Glad you didn't tell me.". Had to chuckle at his reply.
Thanks for the kind words. He'll be back out there on the 24th with the Marlins Scout team. Say "HI" if you see him. He'll have no clue who you are, but you could have some fun watching the look on his face. ;o)
You were right NYdad.
Got done in by Richmond in pool play. Our only loss.
GHHS,
When I saw the roster, I knew he was throwing against us. Well, I work with the hitters on our team and I didn't tell our hitters how good your son was. I made a few calls and every coach I spoke with said "He's a DUDE". We were fortunate to squeak out some decent ABs.
I will be sure to say hi in Jupiter.
Cool deal! If I had my way, he'd face that kind of competition every outing. What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.
Big props on your hitting approach too. He said he had to pitch backwards to most of them after the 1st inning, because they were so all so aggressive.
