Ooof, that’s tough. We have a bunch of young players this year. It’s not been one of my favorites. And there’s only so much you can say to get them to play, especially with these younger generations of iPads and indoor kids.
I had 12 kids on the team (one quit last week, thank goodness), had one practice where 8 of them showed up. Other than that it was typically 5-6; saw one for the first time at the first game. I truly believe I was somehow handed the one team who has 9 kids who don’t care about playing and mom just signed them up. The attentiveness I’ve seen from 5-6 yr olds on 7 other teams so far is nothing like what I’m dealing with. Most are digging in the dirt or laying down throwing their gloves while my son is asking what the situation is and where he’s going with the ball.
 
😂 from middle school ball to the big leagues. You ever do that in the cages? Push 50 then push say 70 or 80? It’s not even fun
They would do that crap to us in high school to mess with us. They would have it set to like 60 and then randomly bump it to 90 or 95 😂
