Are there any good 16U travel teams in Georgia? With so many kids at my kids school I'm told it is pretty tough to make the team. I'd like to have a back up plan. He's good, usually one of your most consistent players on the field offensively and defensively, but I've heard of some pretty great players here not making the cut.

The 16U teams will primarily play in the summer, following the HS season. Options for filling in the spring-gap, should your son not make the HS team, are to have him ask his coach if he can work out with the team but not play. And/or find a good instructor to meet with in whatever position he plays plus hitting, and a good work-out plan so that he stays fit. Then he'll be ready for summer, and might even beat someone next year for their position.

PM me and I can give you some leads on summer teams, depending on where you live and how far you want to travel. Most are having tryouts right now through Sept, so you must act fairly quickly.

NOTE: Our team in Cobb County is looking for another lefty pitcher and/or power hitter for next summer. Speed is a plus, and attitude a must. We had a great season this year, and have a harmonious group of families and players--plus a very good head coach! (Former ECB Astros coach. Former pro player with the KC Royals organization. HS head coach.)
Thank you for the offer of information. He actually has already been playing summer and now fall ball with a 16U team nearby and has already been asked to play for the 18U team for the same team next summer. My son is a pitcher and power hitter, absolutely lives & breaths baseball with about one of the best attitudes you'll ever see on a playing field, but alas he is not a lefty.
