| help with little league baseball  | | | | my 9 year old tried out for little league and didn't make the cut, while his sister tried out for softball and there were so few positions that every girl was put on a team. They put my 9 year old in the minor league, which was great because he has never played on a team, and only had me to throw and bat with for the past year. Well, today, the coaches called and said that they had a player quit and wanted my little boy to join. Reluctantly I said yes, but i let them know that he had never played before. They were eager to get him on the team and said that they could teach him as we went along. Well, Saturday is their first game, and he hasn't even had one practice with a team that has practicing for over a month! what i am afraid of, is the awful things that i have heard about parents in the stands. I am afraid that my little guy will hear some of their rude comments and get disgruntled and give up. What can i do to help him? Also,...how long does a game generally last! Thanks | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | The game usually lasts about an hour or so. About the parent issue, if these are little children then the parents usually aren't allowed to be poor sports and you can talk to whoever runs the league after it happens if it happens. As for your 9 year old, I would try to mentally prepare him before the game that there are people there that might say mean and hurtful things, but just to ignore them and try his best. If he tries his best YOU will be proud of him and that is all that really matters. But I would also try to get him a little extra practice in before the game, since most of the time the kids get the jitters right before and during the games most of the time. I hope this helps and tell him good luck we will all be rooting for him!!! | | | | | | | ladyljs (670)
