After watching High School baseball in Fayette/Coweta and around Atlanta, one thing is obvious - the feeder programs in PTC aren't very good. Kids come up through the PTC Little League system that have no clue on the fundamentals and strategy of the game. The kids that want to play the game at anywhere above a basic level are being shortchanged by the PTC Rec Dept and forced to find other programs and facilities to suit their needs. The Rec Dept continues to pump money and resources into a dinasour of a program called Little League, and descriminates against anyone who wants to play youth baseball at higher level. Look at the rosters of local High Schools and see where the real ballplayers come from - travel ball programs and private facilities like Home Plate and The Dugout Club. Why are we forcing the most dedicated and highest performing players out of town? By the way, these well-rounded kids also tend to be very strong students and peer leaders, so you "anti-athletics" folks can take your opinions and your wussies-in-training somewhere else. Offering recreational sports is a fanstastic idea and should be available to all that want to play. However, don't force everyone into the same mold; let the sky be the limit for those who want to shoot for the stars (or at least launch a screamer in the gap for a stand-up double!).
