Tryouts for North Toronto Minor Mosquito A-AA All-Star Team

Attention NTBA baseball players born in 2000.

Tryouts for the 2010 minor mosquito all-star team will be held at Memorial Park, Saturday, Oct. 3 at 11:00 am- 1:00 pm and Sunday October 4 at 11:30 am-1:30pm.

We encourage anyone born in 2000 who has aspirations of playing all-star baseball to come and tryout.
Playing all-star baseball is great for a child's skill development, not to mention improved self-discipline, sense of responsibility, strenghtening of one's character, and lasting friendships with teammates and their families, to name a few.

Earning a roster spot on an all-star team is a great accomplishment at any age. All-Star baseball provides your child with an opportunity to play at a much more competitive level than the houseleague has to offer. We practice 1-2 times and play 1-2 games against other teams in the greater Toronto area every week throughout the summer. In addition , we participate in at least 2 weekend tournaments during the spring and summer. Our playoffs (City Championships) are on a weekend in the middle of August. The Provincial Champianships, hopefully, take place on Labour Day Weekend. The team will be part of the Toronto Baseball Association/York Simcoe Baseball Association.

We plan to start practicing with professional instruction once a week during the winter at an indoor baseball facility. The cost for this will be approximately $500 per player.

The goals of our coaching staff will be to help your child deveop the skills necessary to be successful at this level in a fun, positve environment of teamwork and good sportsmanship. We will stress the importance of effort and a willingness to learn over results.

Being a member of an all-star team is a privilege as there are only a limited number of spots and many players who wish to fill them. In order to be copetitive we will need our players to attend all practices and games therefore we will give priority to players who will be in the city most of the summer. We understand that vacation and camp are an important part of summer and recommend that they are done in July.
