A few notes:
1.
There is no
cost to try out.
2.
You must
pre-register via email at oyboshkosh@gmail.com. Please include your
child’s name, DOB, current grade and which age group they plan to try out
for. Pre-registration helps OYB better plan for the tryout and makes it
easier to notify everyone of changes due to weather or unforeseen
circumstances.
3.
Please plan to
arrive approximately 15 minutes before the scheduled tryout time for warm up
throwing and stretching.
If
your child can not attend the tryout date or time selected for his designated
age group, please notify us at oyboshkosh@gmail.com to make alternate arrangements and be
considered for a travel team.
Ideally, OYB would like to have
two teams at each age level.
·
Travel teams typically
practice twice a week throughout the summer in addition to weekend
tournaments.
·
Tournaments are
generally within approximately an one hour drive of Oshkosh however, occasionally
some tournaments may require a greater travel distance.
·
The number of
tournaments a team plays in is decided by the teams’ head coach. There may be
some flexibility in the number of tournaments a player chooses to participate
in.
All kids will be evaluated over a
variety of skills and additional emphasis will be placed on HUSTLE.
All kids should bring a glove,
hat, helmet, baseball shoes or cleats, water or drink and
anything else they may need. All kids are responsible for their own
equipment and OYB shall not be liable for any lost, stolen or misplaced
equipment. Please have your child’s name on all equipment to ease in
relocating any misplaced items.
Lastly, the Travel program is
looking for and in need of coaches. OYB does not decide how many travel
teams it will have at any age level until after the tryouts. If you are
interested in coaching in the Travel program in 2020, please notify us at the
email address listed herein. Notification of interest does not
guarantee that you will coach as the OYB board will assign coaches at all
levels sometime this fall.
If you have any questions about
the travel program in general please contact us at oyboshkosh@gmail.com
Sincerely,
Oshkosh Youth Baseball
