Since when does the paper providing a profitable business, one that preys on overzealous parents who think their kids are going to be stars, free advertising?

If your kid is in high school and needs to go to a facility like this to get coaching then maybe you should replace the H.S. Coach. Otherwise, for little leaguers this type of facility/training is usually beneficial. To what extent is questionable. Advice: You parents that spend thousands of dollars in "Super"Leagues, you should take all of that money and invest it in a qualified personal instructor. Your child will get much, much, much more benefit in skill development. Good Luck to All!

I say save all that money you spend in super leagues for your child's college fund. Much better spent and your child will develop into a better all-around person.
