I went to Be the Best for many years when it was in New Jersey (close to home) and it was always a great experience. I took my daughter the last two times and we had a blast together. Ken Eriksen called her up on stage once and had her demo drills he was explaining.

The Mohegan Sun event is encouraging players to attend, so I’ll probably take her there and spend the night.

I’m a member of the NFCA, but none of their upcoming events are in the Northeast. Their member website is full of videos and resources, wish they would livestream the convention for members who cannot attend in person.

I live in NYC. A trip to Texas wouldn’t work for my family. I would also prefer to communicate with directors and coaches in my region.

Thanks for your input.

I understand! Hard for us to get to things back east, and NFCA does not have much out west this year. If you are not a member, though, it’s only $80 /yr (I think), and is a pretty big cache of info to peruse. I think that alone is worth it. If you’re able to partake of any other live training, bonus!

FYI - the coaches that attend the conference are from ALL parts of the country. Last year there was a strong contingency from the NE area.

FWIW, NFCA videos everything, and I believe they make the entire conference (and I think subsets of it in some cases, like all of the hitting or pitching tracks?) available to purchase a few months after it‘s over. I think they even have archives available of previous years. Not sure if that was only for Covid years, or will be continuing.

World Coaches SB Convention at Mohegan Sun is well worth it and yes players are encouraged to attend. The breakout sessions are generally intended for coaches like 12u through college, but there are interactive sessions that include volunteer players from the crowd, bat/equipment demos, autograph sessions, and contests. Exhibitors usually have pretty good deals on equipment, training aids, and apparel. Mohegan Sun Casino, itself, isn't exactly kid friendly on the gaming floors, but the food court and shopping areas are pretty cool to walk around like any other casino resort destination.
