The island of Ocracoke is a small island community located along the Outer Banks off the coast of North Carolina. Apart from its scenic beaches, it's also home to one of the most unique dialects of English in the US!

Parents I hope your 12u travelball team coaches are into developing your kids rather than winning the Burger King championship-I promise you that trophy will mean nothing when they’re in college-wether they’re still playing hopefully or watching from the stands-DEVELOPMENT FIRST
