Mosquito Spring Baseball
Mosquito Spring Baseball will begin Sunday April 15, 2012 and conclude Sunday June 24, 2012
Player evaluations will be held on Sunday April 15, 2012
Initial Team practices will be held April 23-26, April 30th & May 1st, 2012. Each team will practice at least 3 times before playing games. Each team will have one and possibly two exhibition games on May 2 & 3, 2012. Coaches will determine practice times and length of practices during the first two weeks of the season. In addition, each team will be strongly encouraged to have one practice a week for the balance of the year. These practices will most likely be held Saturday mornings. Coaches will determine the time and length of these weekly practices.
Games will be played on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings beginning May 7 and will continue through June 7, 2012. Games will begin at 6:00 pm and end at approximately 8:00pm, depending on the time of year; light being the determining factor. Each child will be expected by be at the filed ready to play at 5:40pm. Each team will generally play twice a week on a rotating nightly basis.
Once a picture day date is established each team will have a game on this Saturday. Finally, we expect to have a wrap up tournament commencing on June 11, 2012 and concluding on June 24, 2012.
Summer Mosquito Baseball
We expect to have two Summer Mosquito teams, a single A team made up of all first year players born in 2002 and another at the AAA level with a mix of first & second year players. Players wishing to try out for Mosquito Summer Baseball should be prepared to commit to playing baseball most of the weekends in July and possibly one weekend in August. Tryouts for Summer Mosquito Baseball will likely involve a series of exhibition games and practices on several weekends in May & June.
