Dear Parents,
For the past ten years I have been preaching about the risks of playing too much baseball. I advise, no, implore you to watch and read the following link. Injuries in youth baseball are at an all time high and this is a clear way to alert yourself to the dangers. Too many erroneous and counter productive concepts are out there such as: the more you play games the better you get, travel far distances to get more exposure, tournaments make you a better player, if you want to get better, play year round, double headers build endurance,
bragging because your child had to play three games in a day. Please take the time to view the information in this link and know there is a better and safer approch for your child.

Best regards,
Coach Pete
