My son plays on a 10-year old "travel" team and has been having a good experience so far. This past weekend he played in a tournament and lost all 3 games. They have practice every Wednesday, and have decided to scrimmage another team as opposed to practicing. I am a hs baseball coach and my thought is that they need to practice much more than scrimmage to "fix" whatever mistakes they made at the scrimmage. Let alone, getting more ground balls, fly balls, swings than they ever would in a game. I am not the coach but feel like I need to voice my opinion.
My question, how would you handle this? As you know, so volunteer coaches have egos and do not like being told how to run their team.
