I must have joined some group a while back and all of a sudden I’m seeing tons of travel ball tryouts posts. What’s the deal with some charging a fee for try outs? Wtf is that about?

Is this for Coyts team he coaches, or just a team in his organization?

I had a great time with the parents. But he can suck it. No support for the coaches who are donating their time. Please don't waste your money with this organization.

Brother. Do not let this down your spirit. It’ll all be worth it when Jaxton is trying out to get a $800 discount on tuition at Southeastern: from there, sky is the limit. And by sky I mean selling insurance or landscaping.

All of it is a money grab and ridiculous. People like this ruin sports for kids and I’ll never have anything good to say about them.

Don’t forget he was hawking Game Coin too.

Or just don’t do travel ball with the other morons.

Travel ball is an embarrassing thing to be involved in at this point. Some ex-jock bros decided they wanted to make money coaching ball and figured out a way to grift off loser dads and moms who live their entire lives around their kids. It’s fricking weird.

I don’t normally jump in on tourney ball threads because it’s the same people and same comments over and over again…

But with that said, I figured I’d throw a white name out there for you guys.





Terrible.

Don’t be so sure

If they win 11 games in the next 24 hours they make the third place title game

THIS is what makes you have a revelation to not play with the Lugnuts? I guess the Knights Knation win.

We're done with travel ball. Had two boys in it. My youngest son isn't travel ball material and even if he was, we're tired of the grind.

By far the best experience was with the Leopard Dawgs. In our case it was with the AAA 12U team. Mark is a solid guy.

If this happens then no other players will go to college or pro. I guess the next thing you’ll suggest is not going to showcases even though that’s the only way to get discovered.
