Let's talk about the PO position. I am having a problem with letting go of the team aspect of sports. For school, there is no problem with being a part of the team as a PO. For tournament/showcase baseball, it's becoming more apparent every year that it is much more about the individual than the team. With the cost of travel and the reality of PO, going to a tournament just for the day of your scheduled start seems much more common.
BUT it just doesn't feel right to me. What are some experiences with this? The top in travel teams rarely practice. It's expected you prepare on your own. Just curious to hear some of your thoughts on the process as a PO in travel ball.
Thanks,
