*DIAMOND CHAMPIONS* YOUTH BASEBALL ASSOCIATION
O'Brien Baseball Inc.
"Bring your A game"
This site will host information concerning a new 18yr. 16yr. 14/15 year old 60'/90', spring and summer league, 13,12,11,10,9,8 and T-Ball ages youth competitive leagues. There will be only one division and open to all and any teams. We hope this association along with others who offer top end competition will help keep encouraging youth players, parents and coaches to continue to try and step up in competition and improve their athletes game, rather than be content with where their game is now or be satisfied with some youth organizations watered down divisions of play.
ENOUGH ALREADY !!..... Tired of the basically meaningless points chase (but thanks for the bucks you spent getting them), talent deteriorating process of rating/classifying of teams, endless paperwork, etc? This association would like to cater to those looking for another avenue of play that simply requires a team who's goals are to challenge their players, play good competition and who's athletes probably have aspiration's of playing high school and beyond. Also to those teams, who by picking up a couple players or so if they wanted, would like to go out and gauge where their athletes game stands and expose them to a little more competitive atmosphere. A place to test the waters. We offer simple paper work, ease of registering, encourage all-star/pick up type teams, recreational teams who want to band together for a weekend, whatever, and will listen to input of our members ideas to better this type of association.
As we are based in Oklahoma we'll have a few *Diamond Champions* events this 2008 spring, summer and fall. All events will be open to any and all. We'll go to where the interest take us. Post season events will start in Oklahoma but we are looking to do other post season events in other venues and states. This will be your association as well as ours. Have ideas of possible improvements, contacts to other parks, leagues or post season sites? Just drop us an email or call and we'll check it out.

3).Rosters will be required turned in by the Tuesday before a particular tournament and considered "frozen" at that time.
4).Teams are required to have "on hand" at all times and show all rostered players birth certificates before their first game. No player can hit the field without a birth certificate.
(5).Any number of pick up players allowed, encouraged,and can be from anywhere - the better the teams the better the particular tournament.
(6).May 1st is age cut off date used.
(7). Good sportsmanship by ALL required. Discussions between umpires and coaches will only be allowed face to face and in a normal tone of voice. Yakking at umpires from coaches box,dugouts OR parent/fans seating will not be tolerated. Head coaches are subject to removal from the game due to non-control of their parent/fans seating area. We believe you can have very competitive games within a sportsman like arena-adults used to do this-let's bring it back and show the kids.
