Last thing, Barbe is a money pit. They have the top technology and the facilities are better than some colleges. Equipment that will read every move you make. I’ve been lucky enough to have been there numerous times with Gavin and my son who is blown away to be workout with him. Gavin is really ...

Gavin’s sister was a good softball player but really excelled at volleyball at Barbe. She had offers to play in college but it’s funny how things happened. Gavin’s junior year she brought a guy to a wedding and you could tell something was different. That night I met Brody for the first time and...

I love when people say they know the family and then start talking and all you can do is laugh. It’s different to say hi to one another but don’t know anything about them. His dad really took over Gavin’s future when he was 10. Researched everything and made a plan to get him out of Vinton with...
His work ethic was amazing and played a huge role in his success. He was always working to get better. He also took private lessons with a few legit instructors who specialized in different aspects of the game, damn near every bit of free time he had while still excelling at 3 sports. Your right...
Know him very well. He is the main reason people even know about about that school. He didn't play Travel I believe except a few showcase events that helped his recruitment coming from an unknown school. Nothing against McNeese but he could have played for a D1 school but he didn't get the reco...
I've actually spoke him with him twice since I read your post. Also hung out with him quite a bit two weekends ago at the Regional Super NIT at Ford Park officially. Even though the fields were from Crosby to Lake Charles because it had close 250 teams. And your so wrong about most of the kids th...
Sorry for coming at you the way I did! I was reading this thread at 1 something in the morning and misread your comment. Cheers and agree now that I have read it again ...
You are dead on and you actually get it! Basic fundamentals is the key to the game. If your kid isn’t taught that first they probably don’t stand a chance. To many coaches don’t even know the basics and can’t even teach kids the game. The coach is the first thing you should look at before joinin...
If you actually read my post I specifically talk about daddy ball!! There are a lot of parents that are involved just to say their kid is on a travel team. They are doing it for their own ego and are hurting the kids future. I agree with everything you posted!! I’m not trying to argue with y...
I see a lot of butt hurt in here. Thanks for the posters that actually understand the game!! One thing I will give credit to the ones who downvoted is travel ball does effect the players that pitch all year. That’s on the coaches and especially the parents who allow it to happen. Fortunately my ...
Flightclouds You cant be serious. I know Cresse with the canes very well. And lessons and training can absolutely teach you how to throw and pitch the correct way and definitely add quite a bit of velocity pitching. Serious question, have you ever played baseball and had elite lessons from the...
LSU9109 I started my son at 9. What’s really hurting kids is coach pitch travel ball at 7yrs old....
And also if you are one or the posters bitching about the money part, it might be time to go find something else to play. If your child is good enough every penny you spent will be well worth it!!...
A lot of you have know clue about Travel ball. In most cases they are getting way better coaching which will help kids development a benefits your son/daughter and makes them a better player. My son plays for one of the top organizations in Houston and his coach played more than 15 years in the ML...
