How much time are you spending on your culture at the travel ball level?
I’ve seen your try-out flyers and read your promises. Are you living up to what you’re selling? How do you know your team is the “right fit?” How can you assess your culture? What can you do to enhance your standards and hold your players accountable? Did you promote showcase opportunities? The more time and energy you focus on creating and celebrating better humans, the more prepared your players will be for life after travel ball.
Are you a college coach who wants your recruits to be accountable and thrive in a highly competitive environment?
One way to attract and retain talented players for your organization is to partner with teams that have Climate Certified* Coaches. These coaches adhere to ethical standards, instill values of integrity, honesty, and commitment in their players, and enforce a parent code of conduct that promotes a positive and respectful environment. By recruiting from these teams, you can ensure that your players have the skills, attitude, and character that enrich your team’s culture.
When was the last time your team played a full 7 inning game in travel ball? And why does that matter?
It’s no wonder the NCAA Transfer Portal is boasting in popularity amongst college coaches. It is their opportunity to bring in experienced and physically conditioned athletes accustomed to enduring a grinding season of 56-games (Division I max). Often, first year players take 1-2 seasons to physically and mentally sustain the nearly daily rigor of a 2.5 hour game. Pitchers at the travel ball level are used to throwing 1-2 innings and resting. If we can encourage and restore the authentic game back into our travel ball system, players will be better prepared to make an immediate impact at the next level and college coaches will turn to reputable programs that are preparing their athletes to thrive at the next level.
