Not a dad either but i played both travel ball and in a public rec league in my youth. And yes we learned all of those things and executed them in games just like every other team we played. The rec league was much more like what you described. This probably varies locationally, I understand some rec leagues probably have great players and coaches, but i think it is safe to assume that parents who are willing to invest thousands of dollars in tournament fees and travel costs year round probably care more about teaching the sport than the 2 month rec league parents?

You would think that abut you are wrong. They just pay to play and fundamentals are not taught. The rec league/ travel ball you played is a completely different from now. I played rec/travel ball too but the advanced players got the fundamentals during travel ball and practice. Now you just play every weekend and thats it.
