In what states has your son(s) played baseball?

Some have suggested we make them two separate states!

I'm not sure they could come together to form a program like yours down there ncball? But they do have lots of good options anyways.

I'll be by your place this evening around 7:00 to see Fernando. Will you be there?

Not tonight. I will be there the next three days with camps. Say hi to Coach Fernando. Let's talk soon regarding the project with Coach H.

No problem I have tough skin. I just think that cali is such a big state that they should draw a line somewhere near Modesto or Fresno. (lol)

Just checking this thread out and from one So Cal baseball mom I can assure you that once a So Cal team has been fwamped by NorCal baseball, they gain all the respect in the world for players and the programs up north. (But I tend to agree with baseballbum in the suggestion that there should be two separate states ... we are basically separate cultures anyway.) But Northern Cal players are definitely respected down in the O C.

My son is just going into his 12 year old season and has played in Tennessee, Mississippi, Missouri, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, and Nevada. All of our family vacations include baseball, which is just fine by me.

Thanks FutureBackMom- The reality is that I take our guys down there because that's where the best baseball is played. That's the best way to get better. I think we have now earned the respect of the baseball world down there by our play on the field.

Let's hear where some of you newer posters have been for baseball.

Son is going into his 12yr old season so his experiences ahev been limited so far:

Played against:

NH
MA
ME
CT
(hopefully add others while in cooperstown this summer)

Played in:

And hopefully Arkansas for the 12yr old 60' Cal Ripken world Series..lol!!

Welcome to the board. My boy played in Cooperstown 2 years ago. He played 9 games and not one state was a repeat.

Thanks for the welcome Bkekcs!

We are looking forward to the experience!!!

We have only been playing travel/tournament ball for two years now and we have played in

Illinois
Iowa
Mississippi
Nebraska
Tennessee

Son is going into his U15 year old season next year.
He's played in:

Maryland
South Carolina
New York
New Jersey
Mississippi
Pennsylvania
Delaware
Virginia

PA, NJ and MA

The MA trip was a reasonably near one a year overnight so a few relatives in the area could see three kids play. Other than that everything is close by. Heading into high school our players only have to be able to compete with the kids in the area. That's expensive enough. Had we won our Super NIT they would have gone to FL for the Elite 24. But the kids are paid for.

On vacations, weekend trips or other places we've lived my kids have been to ...

ME
NH
MA
RI
CT
NY
NJ
PA

DC
VA
FL
AL
MS

CA

CO
NM
TX
AR

ONT
QUE

NB
PEI

Looks like your son played in the Pioneer League. If so who for?

Just a few, but from where we live its all travel ball. The Pa games alone are 5+ hrs. He will be playing 15u this year. Last year was his 1st varsity year. I know, location, location, location.
