That depends on the coach. Once you go to a B team coaching usually drops off. Also a lot of kids run from B teams so you end up with kids that still can't catch and throw good! That could frustrate your kid. See what the talent level is before you jump because your kid will get better by playing with the better kids in practice. 5 tournaments compared to 40 practices.
If your kid never gets to hit the field and execute what he learned in practice, he will not get better. His enthusiasm as well as his IQ will suffer. There is a lot to be said for game play. And when time comes for recruiting and showcases he needs to be where he will stand out most. College coaches go to tournaments -- not practices.
