NEW FOR 2012 - Our 7-8 league will convert to machine pitch for games this season.  The machines are provided by Pitching Machines Now.  Check out their link in our sponsor section.

FALL BASEBALL OPPORTUNITIES: Due to limited field availability we are restricted on the number of teams that we can handle in the Fall season. Fall baseball teams are typically coached by our Spring travel coaches. If you are interested in a tryout with one of these teams please contact the appropriate travel coach listed below.

8U Fall Baseball: If your 6 or 7 year old son/daughter is a talented player you may be looking for an opportunity for them to play at a higher level. Players from our Fall 8U team have typically moved on to become the core of our 8U team in the following Spring season. If they play other sports we can usually work around that as we realize baseball is a secondary sport in the Fall. We will focus on fundamentals and you may be surprised at how fast their skills will develop. If you would like more info about a tryout for the Fall 8U team please contact the Travel Coordinator, Jeff Webster, at the email address listed below.
