It's just a great experience to see the boys get to play with their school buddies. There is no pressure and it is so much fun for them that I know they love it, and the memories they create will stick with them more than even the tourneys they play with their select teams. One suggestion, and no idea how feasible it would be, but I would love to see this more times throughout the year. I know all the select players have busy schedules, but I think you could do this kind of tourney a couple of times a year if you did it during the week. You can have the teams opt in from this weekend and play with the same roster and uni's, and you could do a couple of midweek tourneys throughout the spring. I know my boys would love it.

I loved coaching the kids and them getting to represent their school. My son had a blast and can't wait until next year and I hope to get the opportunity to coach the boys again. The boys had a lot of fun playing together.

What a great weekend of baseball! I really had no idea what to expect but since I coached a lot of these kids, who have since gone their separate ways with different baseball organizations, I thought it would be a lot of fun to get the group back together. We had a great time reuniting and added a number of new faces as well. Our goal was to have fun (and we did) but I was pleasantly surprised by the extremely high quality of baseball. Can't wait to do it again next year!
