I play varsity for a program in the Northeast and it always makes me mad about the lack of fan interest at my high school and the community for the high school baseball program.
The baseball team at my high school has had a history of winning. The team won the title in '97,'98, and '99, and was a runner up in '96. During this decade the team has only had one losing year to this point and has made many deep playoff runs.
Yet every home game we get 20-30 people a game if we're lucky and more than half those fans are parents wathcing there kids play, there is barely any students at the games or anyone from the ouside community. It seems many people don't do to the games because they think its boring, but in reality they are really missing exciting action. What does it take to get fans interested in going to the baseball games?
