Wife has some...for HS Ball...She has 2 old issue GI wool blankets...Wool blankets, covered by windproof poncho liner...Lifes good...still bothers me when wife has US showing...old habit...
Had a Dad once laugh about the Old Army blankets...until I showed him the power of wool...Then he wanted me to give him one...Uh...No:-)

Wool doesn't rot, retains it loft even when damp, and doesn't hold odors...

I still have a few of those OD green blankets- keep in cars for emergency

I also have two Korean War era wool army shirts- ich like hell but are they warm....

Also keep an old e-tool in the trunk.. My wife and kids laughed at me(until the time we "almost" go stuck"

Got an e-tool in my truck...Gonna snag another soon as I can...Old friend of mine said he used one in Nam one night...and wasn't digging anything...hes real deal, not one the BS'ers...Got another Buddy who was at Hamburger Hill, with the 101st as a medic, got Bronze Star with a V device...
...maybe get a couple more blankets...rent them at tourneys;-)

I asked the question because,,,,,
Are parents smarter now!!!
Do they want to miss out on Rec. ball.?? Do they know better?
If they are,,well,, they are missing out on a fun part of growing with sport.
A lot can be learned from the Rec. ball years..
Was it because of area,,,maybe Rec. ball in their area sucks.. ? or have none.
It just seems like a fun age,,,,, why do 'travel ball'.?
YOU CAN'T COMMIT BEFRE 14!!!
Why commit to a sport before 8.
I was just asking.....
