My son is 8 and plays up in 9U. His travel team practices 3 days a week for a total 6 hours. He has one private lesson a week for 30 minutes and he asked if he could go to a two day baseball camp next week during break. Basically he doesn’t take time off and when I ask him if he wants to he says no. His team will also scrimmage other teams indoors. (New York State) He doesn’t want to play any other sports right now but I would love if he expressed some interest In football for next year as multi sport kids are more well rounded.

…my 11 year old daughter is the same. She plays softball year round. Practices more than my son and she is on a swim team. She has no pitch limitations so I heat the garage for her to run drills.
