Navigating Travel Baseball: What Parents and Players need to know!

A year by year guide of what to expect and how to find the best team for your son, plus a Players Perspective on many aspects of travel baseball.
When he was little, he looked like he was born to wear a baseball uniform. Heâ€™s been throwing a ball since he could walk, and youâ€™ve heard a ball bounce off of a wall for the better part of his life. His motion is so quick, he always hits the ball, and is almost always on base. You get excited every time he gets in the batterâ€™s box. Sound familiar?

And now, heâ€™s been invited to join a travel team, and your life is about to change in ways large and small. Enjoy the ride, and let us help you navigate.

Weâ€™ve been part of a travel baseball family for many years now, and it has been a wonderful experience. But, it wouldâ€™ve been nice to know what we were getting into, and how this would change year after year. There are plenty of â€œlittle leagueâ€ books in the marketplace, and there are many great stories and much to learn. But, you would be hard pressed to find a detailed, year by year guide on first hand travel baseball experiences that you could use to prepare you for each season, and even to help you choose the right team for your son.

This book is the guide youâ€™ve been looking for, and will help you make the most of your travel baseball life and experiences.

What is Travel Baseball?

Your travel baseball experience will be closely tied to your relationship with your coaching staff. This guide provides a list of questions to ask the coach before agreeing to play with a travel team. Questions such as player fees, practice schedules, fundraiser opportunities, outside training requirements, if family vacations are allowed during the season, pitching philosophies and many more are included.
Gain an understanding of how the game changes year after year

This book devotes a chapter to each age division beginning with 7 and under and continuing through 14 and under and provides guidance on rule changes, field dimensions and coaches expectations. Includes techniques of how to effectively advocate for your son (and how to not be the problem parent). We also discuss avenues to avoid having your son overpitched.
Learn what the Coaching Staff will expect from your sonâ€¦and your family

Expectations at this level of competitive play are far higher than in community recreation leagues. Players are expected to come to practice ready for action and training outside of practice will be expected. These expectations will increase each year. Learn what will be expected at each age range.
Learn sources for discounted baseball gear

The costs associated with travel baseball are often in the 1000â€™s of dollars for playersâ€™ fees in addition to the necessary baseball gear. We provide some of our favorite sources for discounted quality baseball gear from local and on-line retailers. Did you know taking your bat to your local batting cage voids the warrantee? Also included are Dos and Donâ€™ts for one of the most expensive purchases â€“ your bat.
Cooperstown Baseball

First-hand experiences of our week at Cooperstown. What to pack, where to stay and how to get the most from the experience. Plus a listing of activities in the area for the rest of the family to enjoy.
From a Players Perspective
