This was a touchy subject for both sides of the fence. There are thousands of you out there who are totally against travel ball. You hear stories of hurting arms, teaching to win, etc.. But for every one of those stories, there is a counter point.
My personal opinion.. Its great if you have great coaching.
Reason number one. In a two day tournament, you can get 15 or more at-bats against good pitching. That is 1/4 of a Little League season, in one weekend... Against good pitching too.
That is an opportunity that is hard to pass up.
Just make sure you son / daughter is getting the positional and skill set coaching every practice because at the higher levels, defense and smart baseball is as important as your batting average.

Why Quit
Original Article here
The best quote is from Nancy Lopez..
"A competitor will find a way to win. Competitors take bad breaks and use them to drive themselves just that much harder. Quitters take bad breaks and use them as reasons to give up. It's all a matter of pride." - Nancy Lopez
A good read. Why does everyone feel this way yet every league has issues?
