Being I live in Bledsoe and my son played in the youth Baseball league last year I witnessed this first hand as I watched some of the older returning players go to Whitwell and play. It rubbed me pretty bad at first but some of them are friends and I don't blame them to a extent BUT my big argument is IF YOU WANT TO PLAY FOR WHITWELL MOVE TO WHITWELL!!!!! There I got that off my back and yes I have thought about taking my son there to play but IF, and that is a big IF!!! IF I do, I would move! My son had a blast playing last year and he was 5 and will be playing again this year! If you ask him now how many games he won I promise you he would have no clue!!! He enjoyed it and is eager to get started this year! I would rather him have fun and enjoy it rather than me burn him out TROPHY HUNTING and playing 30+ games as a 5 year old. I would love for him to be as advanced as some of the young players but he loves it and he will advance as he goes because he enjoys it so much. As for all them that left, it is their own decision and I will not be mad at them or hold against them and I wish them luck.
