Same as post from Pre High School Board:

I have 3 soon-to-be baseball players, 2 boys and 1 girl (yes, triplets) anyways, their big brother is an 09 and so we've been involved in baseball since he could swing a bat. Well now it's the little ones turn and while we are in Ohio right now, our tentative plan is to be living in Tennessee in a couple of years. Which puts these 3 at school age and definitely in the throws of baseball life. In fact, they start big bat in a couple of weeks (they are 3 1/2 years old)

Anyways, the point to my post is where are the best places for them to play for good programs that will help them along this wonderful journey? The boys have the natural ability and passion, like their big brother, so baseball will definitely rule this house! Their sister enjoys baseball also, and we'd like to keep her in baseball for as long as she can before making the switch to fastpitch, as this can only help her. So places that accept a girl on the team, would help, but not mandatory, as she can just play fastpitch when the time comes...

Hope this post makes sense. I will post this on the Tennessee board as well, but thought I'd check here with those that have younger players. We are looking mostly in the Nashville area, more likely the Hendersonville area, but it's not set in stone, the exact city.

Thank you if you've gotten this far! lol

I'm partial to Knoxville and East Tennessee, 'cause it's home. Smile Arguably the top public school program (Farragut)is in Knox County. Although I'm sure I'll get some argument from proponents in Nashville, Memphis, Murfreesboro, etc.

You can find some excellent baseball programs in any of the state's metropolitan areas.
In Middle Tennessee you want to try to settle in Williamson County. They have what most consider the top academic public school system in Tennessee and the baseball at Franklin (went to the state tournament in 2005,2006,2007) & Ravenwood (went to the state tournament in 2007 & 2008)is better than average. If $$$$ is no problem then you may want to take a look at Battle Ground Academy (compented in the state tournament in 2004,2005,2006,2007 & 2008)as they have great academics and baseball every year.
