ABOUT THE TRIBE
Our organization typically fields 3 teams at the U8-U14 age levels. The number of teams at an age level varies based on how many qualified players and coaches exist at that age level. When entering our program at U8, teams are divided equally. Teams typically remain in tact and grow together from U8 through U12. Players that leave the organization are replaced by new players that come through our evaluation process. Beginning at the U13 level, teams are divided by talent level.
In addition to our traditional team offerings, a Premier team is offered at the U13 and U14 age levels. The Premier team provides an opportunity for U13 and U14 kids to play at a higher competitive level to better prepare them to succeed at the high school level. Our Premier teams will compete in a top area youth baseball league. Additionally, the teams will play in 6-8 tournaments, which may include more frequent and longer travel situations. Total games played will be ~40-50.
Tribe players, coaches, and parents commit to supporting our Mission Statement and Program Goals.
