Oh my God. The horror. Coaches dancing and having a good time with their kids at the baseball park.


40 y/o dads in Marucci flat bills dancing to rap music like their at Club Rags is terrible

So are the dads not allowed to have fun with their boys? At what age is the cut off?

Nope. My son is past that and on to bigger things, but I don’t hate on the dads having fun with their kids and other parents. I don’t get the hate.

I would love to see the reaction of the travel ball parents if their kids team got beat by a team of kids from the REC league

Some people ITT are confusing walk out sings at high schools and Alex Box by the actual, live PBP announcer with an app that Karen’s download on their phone and blast over a Bluetooth speaker from their academy sports lawn chair cup holder

The flat bills and rap dancing were never acceptable.

Hey say what you will ,but since we started blaring little Boraxstyn's name and theme song of Back that arse up by Juvenile his batting average has gone off the charts and he is leading the league in HR's. I ain't about to mess with something that is working.

My favorite thing about the travel ball threads is how they are filled with people who do travel ball, but it’s always the “other parents” who do this stuff.

Don’t post that video to Facebook or YouTube, it may get muted or you get a content strike.

Probably happens all the time. A lot of REC leagues take their all-stars and sign up for a month of travel ball tournaments.

Surely you're not talking about baseball. Also, there are no sports in elementary schools.

No, you can't even go to the park and play some baseball with your kid even when the fields aren't being used. All because travel ball jaxxons need MLB quality fields to be maintained for them. It's stupid. It's a fricking park.
actually the parks did this, because of travel ball teams using their fields to practice - also a kind of misguided attempt to hurt travel ball and preventing stuff like a guy driving his truck onto the pitchers mound "to save the field for his teams use"

Like a bunch of kids from Scotlandville who showed up 2 minutes before game time because their '85 E-250 van wouldn't start. Then they all share a single bat and bat around on Chasynn in the first inning. I'd pay $10 / day to see that.

You don’t need the books scholly. Just find someone on the football or basketball team taking the same classes. Borrow their books and go to Kinkos. Little Jaxx can thank me later.

I think its fine if you want to have your kid playing travel ball at 12, when he is starting to develop his arm and body. But an 8u travel ball coach pitch team is a complete joke. This kid isnt even playing real baseball yet.
