The purpose of establishing a 7U development program is to ensure that we have a strong pipeline of potential candidates for the 2024 8U rep team for the HHMBA. This program is intended for a select handful of players that play in the 7U age group in house league that have the physical ability and mental capacity to play and understand the game of baseball at a higher level. As in prior years this group of players will be combined together into a single team and will play up in the 9U age group in house league.
The hope is that the work and practice undertaken in the 2023 season will set these players and the overall program to hit the ground running with a stronger entry as an 8U rep travel team in 2024. One item to note: inclusion on the 2023 7U Development Team would not guarantee a spot on the 2024 8U rep team. All players must go through the normal tryout process.
We will be conducting coach interviews the week of April 24th however we will not be naming the head coach until after the first tryout has been completed.
Update for May 8th - As we sent in email, we had to cancel the first tryout on Sunday, May 7th. We have now rescheduled the second tryout to be this Wednesday, May 10th at 6:00 PM.
The new tryout dates are as follows:
The Armouries diamond is the small diamond on the north edge of the Fairgrounds property. The GPS address is 1 Park Avenue, Georgetown, ON.
In order to tryout for this team you must be registered for House League already and this team is only for players who are born in 2016. These players will play and practice together like a regular 9U House League team so there will be no additional costs.
Please register for the tryout by adding an additional package to your existing registration:
