Keep up the hard work. [/quote]The only way to see is play somewhere other than Ford Park(JOKE). [/quote]Joke or not, there really is some truth to that.  Houston is a great place to see how your team compares.

Correct, the fields are not big enough.  The local 13 year old tournaments are played in Lumberton at the new field on Keith Road.  You can enter those tournaments through the Nations website or through the Southeast Texas Baseball Academy website.

Yes, we may be moving.  I have a talented baseball player, but, don't want to pick a school based on their baseball program.  We pick our schools based on academics.  A few of our academic choices do not have strong baseball programs. My concern and question is, if I can't rely on the school baseball program to be an avenue for my child is it "enough" to just have Select baseball as an option? In a perfect world, I would find a school with great academics along with a strong baseball program.

Does it matter what high school you play for as long as you play select?  Are some high schools better for baseball players than others?

Gladiator 12 majors are 8-2. Gladiator 13 majors are 4-4-1.

No gate fee? Even if the entry fee was free I wouldn't play in a USSSA tournament. Last Spring I witnessed several area teams suffer from their unethical, strongarm bully tactics. I have zero respect for this organization.

Why does the website say there is no tryout this weekend for the 14 year olds?

Now that try-outs are over, is there a website that the new rosters will be posted at?

Since you are "in" you should know that when this post started that this team was set. Bulldg gave the most current facts at the time he made his post. Responding to a question does not make one a know it all.
