looking to join a 15U travel organization next year ... which one is the best ?
T3 elite I believe forfeited a game(s) last weekend in tournament in Newark area.Anyone know anything about Diamond Hit Club or T3Elite
You must find a team that your son will play. Anything else is a complete waste of time.All the programs in NE Ohio have good selling points and play competitive baseball. But depending on the age group, even who people consider to be the "best" programs have weak links in different age groups from year to year. Find an organization that suits you and your sons needs as a player to develop his skill sets next summer. Go to tryouts and meet the coaches and talk to parents already with the program while watching tryouts. This summer having watched close to 50 tournament games as a non parent and being totally objective and impartial to organizations, I have seen many teams with overloaded dugouts with boys not playing and sitting entire game just watching. What good does that do your son improving his game? Your son may be just good enough to be offered a spot with so and so "best" organization but do they want him just as a back up player to fill the roster? Find the team with the need for full time players, not one where he will be sitting and cheering for his teammates on the sidelines for.
VERY expensive, but one of our players is playing for them this year and has loved it! Great coaches, good people... He is getting actual instruction over the off-season/winter instead of just BP and defensive reps that some other programs give.
What city do you live in?looking to join a 15U travel organization next year ... which one is the best ?
Agree on both, always enjoyed playing either organizations at tournamentsBrownlee or Mash Factory no bs involved. Different levels for different players IMO
t3 seemed okay. maybe a little over the top.Anyone know anything about Diamond Hit Club or T3Elite
that is the model used down south.t3 seemed okay. maybe a little over the top.
have had very little exposure to diamond hit club. i know down here in cincinnati a couple of the age groups have formed "a" and "b" teams as kind of like a farm system. ability to pull from the b team when pitching or position help is needed, and drop an a to a b when xtra playing is needed.

I was going to say the same thing...when teams play 4 games in 3 days, and then have championship Sunday (and if they are good, that probably means 2 - 3 games on Sunday), he is trying to limit the number of innings he is having someone pitch.
I have umpired many a tournament where teams got to the championship game on Sunday and literally had no one left to pitch
No. He was stalling. It is obvious by all the other things he was doing during the game. 2 of the pitchers were under 12 pitches when he took them out with no one on and two outs. Each pitcher and inning he took Extended mound visits, multiple offense timeouts with baserunners and the batters.
All my baseball life I have never seen the coach call a timeout, call his baserunners and batter down to the third base coaching box and he did it twice. Put all the evidence together, plus he was the one to call time the second the game as at the time limit.
And he didn't have time..clearly superiors and to be honest...all his shenanigans kept the game closer than it should have and cost to em AB
