None of my kids are particularly remarkable and I don't expect scholarships or anything. It's just for the social impact.
Most of the costs are the monthly dance bill which is just under $1100. The travel ball team is $4000. Fuck it might be more than I thought. |

That's to say nothing of in game stuff like check downs and who backs up which position for a given play. Then Pitching is a whole other beast.
