We'll take it off then. I don't get on the youth forum much so I wouldn't know.

Just because the article is about 9 and 10 year olds doesn't mean it isn't relative to high school sports. What I got out of it was the idea of "select" ball. I know it's been a while but I'm pretty sure high school kids play select ball also.

But it's the reason why we created a youth sports forum with select baseball and softball sub forums. Don't care to have that talk here in the high school forum.

 

Those folks cried and cried to have their own forum so we gave it to them. That talk can stay there.
