re: How many private lessons do I need to sign my lilbaw up for before he makes the big league

As for as the guy giving lessons, there are a lot of former college players out there who didn't make it in pro ball offering lessons. Don't worry about how much it will cost, just take his advice when he tells you the amount of hours he will need to work with your kid.

In no time you can have all the travel ball teams who are looking to fill up a roster calling you to see if your kid can play.

You will find some grade A coaches in travel ball. Rarely will you see a coach show bias towards his kid.

And remember, travel ball is all about the kids. It a billion dollar industry because most kids who play at least makes it to some level in the pros.
