Fall Ball Seasons

Between high school and travel my son has not had a week from baseball since January. I haven't had a weekend from baseball (I'm a coach) since May. We're looking forward to two weeks off after the 17th.

Then he has eight weeks of fall ball coinciding with high school s****r. By the end of October he will have played 88-90 games between school, summer travel and fall travel.

Then he gets two months off from baseball while he's finishing up high school s****r and starting basketball.

He's at goalie camp this week. He told me the looks on people's faces when he pulled out a bat and a dozen whiffle golf balls and asked someone to soft toss him, was priceless.

My coach just sent me an email and we aren't playing this weekend because of school. Really Disappointed.

Relax, enjoy the weekend off, My son just finished a long summer of baseball and then went off to work at a baseball camp. he has two weeks until JC starts and he is in So. cal with a friend bodysurfing and boogie boarding and looking at people on the beach LOL. They left for 6 days to relax and just enjoy whats left of the summer. he even wanted to find a gym down there so he wouldnt miss a week of workouts, I told him take a week off be a KID.
Its ok to have some down time. We have always tried to end the summer of lots of baseball with a good week to two of relaxing and enjoying free time.
Its important so you dont get burnt out.
