035: Mark Hammond II & the Nationally-Ranked 11u MC Hit Dogs Majors
Show Notes

Today we are joined by guest Mark Hammond II from the Motor City Hit Dogs 11u Majors team. The Motor City Hit Dogs are known for producing some of the best teams in the state, and we have mentioned their name in previous episodes, including Episode 12 when we talked to Lale Esquivel from the Texas Canes and Episode 20 with Mark Jebb.

Coach Hammond shares some insights into how and why his team is so successful and what it is like to travel all over the country to find the most competitive tournaments, or to stay in Michigan and compete up two age levels.

Diana and Stephanie also talk with Mark about how their own kids' teams have fared when they have encountered Coach Hammond's teams in the past.

On Deck:
Diana and Stephanie discuss updates with their kids' travel teams and offer rankings for tournaments!
