I believe it is far beneficial to practice twice a week instead of playing in a rec league or rec all star league and maybe say one or no practices. What does everyone else think.
Wow more lopsided then I thought.
Now let's put another twist in there. What about Pitchers is it better to pitch 1 or 2 rec games during the week or practice pitching on those day's. I have my opinion just wondering what everyone else thinks
At 10u dd played rec, and neither of us liked it. IMO the rec league did not provide enough quality competition to improve DD's skills. Some of the girls on her 10U travel team loved it.
12U we did what I feel is the best option, had the whole team play together in double headers in a league against other travel teams twice a week. Any weekends we didn't have a tournament we practiced. We played roughly 150 games that way, and still got in quite a few practices.
We are continuing that line of thought at 14U, playing in a high school DH league in late May to mid July.
