Does your travel ball team have an Instagram account?

A girl I went to high school with has a husband who has been able to quit his regular job to be a “sports photographer” full-time with local travel teams. He’s charging Senior picture prices and folks are paying them. It’s nuts.

I can’t decide if the OT now stands for Obsessed with Trans or Obsessed with Travel ball.



It’s a toss up.

It’s Long Island.

The travel ball name thing is largely a southern border white middle class/working class thing

No pics of travel ball mommies or travel ball parents having sex parties.
Disappointing account.

The first two names of the kids were Aiden and Camden, those other names were on the jersey because that's a relative that served in the military

I’m fairly sure Jim here starts more threads about travel ball than anyone on this board…..

It’s the usual suspects once every couple weeks. 3-4 of the same posters start essentially the same thread. Make jokes about the names. Explain to everyone why tourney ball sucks…

All while not having a child that plays and spends arse loads of money watching LSU sports or whatever expensive hobby they have.


Rinse. Repeat. Probably been happening for 10 years now.

I need to figure out how to cash in on this stupidity.

Do you know any teams who need a finance guy to raise any capital for them?

My FIL did baseball pics as a side hustle for years. Take the pics on Saturday and you could pick them up on Sunday.

Both of my kids play on different travel teams. I just asked them if their teams have instagram accounts and they said yes. I had no idea but according to them all of the teams have them.
