my 7yr old (8 in 2 weeks) made the 8u premier travel team in our area. The idea was to get this 8u team gelling in the fall tournaments (6-7 tourneys) and make a run at nationals in the spring/summer. I'm also a huge fan of supporting of rec ball as well, I coached my DD's 8u rec(machine pitch) for two seasons and they did extremely well. I thought about putting her on the 10u rec team as well in the fall to get some exposure to live pitching. 8u travel has two week-night practices, some saturday hitting clinics and two tournaments a month starting Sept-Nov. The 10u rec team will have games (total 12) during the week and saturdays from Sept-Nov. Wife said it might be a little much and not fair to the REC team with the practice/games, because we are 100% commited to travel. So am I pushing it? or just need focus on the travel ball and the hitting/fielding camps?
