You just have to learn to budget your time. I mean you have class then practice in the fall. All owing to the spring you have games and road trips and class again. Make sure you prioritize your time so you don’t fall too behind in class. But on the other hand make sure you delight in the night life such as parties and stuff. As far as fascinating episodes, all I have to say is to make your own episodes and delight in.
It depends. If you are at a division 1 school then it could mean year-round baseball. I was talking to someone the other day who said that their team has a training program for the whole year. They play fall baseball too.
If you are in a division 3 school then it’s a lot different. It’s still intense, but you aren’t on baseball 24/7.
I do agree with the last answer too even if. Delight in it while you can.
Really, most levels of college baseball play close to year round. I played in the NAIA and we played intersquad games in the fall, heavy conditioning and lifting in the winter, started playing games as early as february 5th, and most players played summer ball in different leagues. How realistic do you want to make this book? Baseball players are notoriously rowdy because you can go out at night and play relatively excellent the next day because it is not as physically demanding as say football or basketball. A friend who is a car insurance agent even told me not to tell my insurance outfit that I was a baseball player cause my rate might go up! Also, we usually travel a lot more and play many more games. ONe more tip- Pitchers are somehow universally goofier players on every team. Especially the lefties. Never figured out why….
I played college ball and when I was away from the field, nearly never, I had the same life any college student can expect. You will most likely spend all of your time playing and involved. Then studying after practice and on the way to games if you have time. It can be quite a load, but well worth it.
Having played D3 baseball my entire college life I reckon I can lend some advice.
Your entire life revolves around baseball. You pick your classes based on your practice schedule, you go out or don’t go out based on baseball, you do work till all hours of the night because of baseball, and you miss out on things that many other people don’t because of baseball.
If you like the sport, then go right for it. I loved it and don’t regret anything. But, I played at a small D3 school and yet I committed every waking moment to baseball. Even in the winter when we weren’t in season we had team workout sessions for 3 hours a day. This is along with 4 classes and then trying to weigh a social life. Its trying. When your other friends, siblings, gf get out of class at 3 pm and have the rest of the day to jag off and do their work at a leisurely pace, you might be done at noon for an away game and home at 8pm, grab a touch to eat then start studying for the rest of the night. This is especially right in the Spring all owing to your real season.
Its a major sacrifice, whatever level you play at.
