I have never seen a more sorry excuse for a baseball organization. Couldn't believe their behavior this past weekend. Good for our local academies for setting high expectations for their players and coaching staff.
Diehard embarrassed baseball this past weekend.

Its an academy from Oakley. We have played them twice in the last three weeks in 15U competition. I have never heard so many F-bombs in my life. The manager was obnoxious the first time we played him and was almost tossed. This last weekend he was worse. He got tossed and then the players and parents went nuts (this went on for a good 20 minutes). One kid even came out of the dugout after our manager. The young umpire handled things pretty well all thing considered.
I'm guessing this team probably won't be allowed back at a TPR tournament.

Unfortunately thee are several teams that don't teach baseball etiquette or valuable life lessons like sportsmanship and class...

Chris,
I would have to say in my 5 years of doing travel baseball, I have only ever asked one team to please never come back. ....
There is a younger version of Diehard Baseball teams and they have not presented a problem and seem to be fine. But the 16u team, I would have to agree with your assessment!
