The problem today is all of the POST season "All Star" Tournaments. My Step Son played on a team as an All Star. Te Reg season is fine. Maybe 20 games plus a 3-4 game post season. All Stars??? That was 5-6 "Practice" Tournaments to prep for THE Tournament, plus practices. In mid August (HOT N HUMID), they'd have MORONIC Tournaments where the first game is at 10 AM. If you win, you play at 3 PM...lose, play at 4 PM. It just dragged on n on.
