Please note any child playing in the 11/12 and the 13/14 age group it is recommended that they show up to tryouts even if you requested to be placed on a team. All kids at this age play travel and it gives us a good idea on what team to place them.
Please note there are no tryouts for ages 15 through 17. Your coach will be in contact with you to let you know which team you have been placed on.
All players must be enrolled to tryout. All player must have glove and rubber (no metal) spikes. We know a big question every year is about bats. There are bat restrictions for each age group and league. It is recommended you wait until you child is placed on a team to ask that coach for the league requirements. Also after tryouts 8, 9, and 10 years who do not make the Philadelphia Parks and Recreation team will be contacted by in house coach. In addition, players who do not make 11/12 and 13/14 Philadelphia Parks and Recreation team will be contacted by NEAA coach.
If you desire your child to participate on a competitive travel team please plan to attend tryouts at the appropriate times and location as outlined above. Tryouts are intended for those players who demonstrate above average skill and talent and desire a higher level of play. You must show up for tryouts to be considered for this level of play. Those chosen will be placed on a team that will play in the Philadelphia Parks and Recreation League. Your child must be a registered player for the 2024 season to attend tryouts!
