Now, you can still do travel ball without being idiotic about it or it having to be a year-round thing. Some of the people in this thread seem to have a grasp on that.

Try and find a quality rec league in BR.. It doesnt exist.
My son fills in for a team during rec league and its a joke.. The only quality teams are travel teams and they do it to develop pitchers but on the whole, its not enough

I've never heard of a rec league with open rosters

With Traction taking over the management of Cypress Mounds... the word is that they want to form a solid league to ease some of the travel. Go to a more traditional style with kids playing a tournament once a month or so during the spring with league games and practice scattered within. This way the rosters for tournament teams would be more fluid as players move around based on a number of factors. They then would play more tournaments in mid may and june. Currently the way it works.. Your busiest months are March and April for weekend tournaments.
Are they trying to do this for ages 6-14 or just the young ones?
