Tryouts Now Open (Dec 18th - Jan 10th)
We are an independent 13U AA baseball team entering a new chapter. After seven great years playing in the 3&2 Rec League, our players (all 7th grade) are ready to move up to more competitive baseball. As a result, we’re forming a dedicated, development-focused team for the upcoming season and are holding tryouts to build a roster of motivated, coachable athletes.
Our team is not affiliated with any club or organization. We believe in a balanced, intentional approach to youth baseball—one that emphasizes skill development, consistency, and character over excessive tournaments that lead to burnout. Our primary focus will be League Play at 3&2, supplemented by one tournament per month to provide competitive experience without overloading families.
We are looking for players who:
Are eager to improve their fielding, hitting, pitching, and catching fundamentals
Show hustle, focus, and a willingness to learn
Value teamwork, respect, and good sportsmanship
Tryouts will include the following components:
Warmups: Dynamic stretching and throwing progression
Fielding Drills: Infield and outfield reps to assess footwork, glove work, and throwing accuracy
Hitting Evaluation: Batting practice to evaluate swing mechanics, contact, and power
Pitcher & Catcher Evaluation: Separate sessions to assess mechanics, velocity, control, and receiving skills
Eligibility requires the player to have been born after May 1st, 2012. Most players on the team will be in the 7th Grade.
Tryouts will be held at D-Bat KC (16150 W 110th St, Lenexa, KS 66219) on the following dates:
December 18th, 2025, from 7:30 - 9:00PM
January 8th, 2026, from 7:30 - 9:00PM
January 10th, 2026, from 10:00 - 11:30AM
