Mandatory Player Workout (Sun Aug 1st, 2021) - 

Players should report to the concession stand area between the baseball diamonds at Nouryon Sports Complex for registration. We expect the workout to last around an hour. Typical athletic apparel is recommended including athletic pants or shorts, a t-shirt and tennis shoes or cleats.

Note: if your child is unable to attend the mandatory player workout they will be placed on a team during the coach's draft through a random assignment. The league does not need to be informed. However, we reiterate that the workout helps us ensure team parity and therefore is not optional. 

• 6/7 year old league 4:00 pm
• 8/9 year old league 5:00 pm
• 10/12 year old league 6:00 pm

What will the practice schedule look like?
