2021 Travel Team Tryouts - 16U

2021 team try-outs will be held on Wednesday, August 19th from 6:00-8:30 pm at Kerry Wood Field.  Please fill out the form at the bottom of the page if you wish to attend tryouts.

​Additional try-out dates will be added as necessary.  Try-outs are open to all players, not just our current rostered players.  Please share try-out information with others as you see fit.  There is no try-out fee or registration.  Players must wear gym shoes or turf shoes.  No metal cleats.  No molded plastic cleats.  No seeds.  No gum.  No food. 

The team will target a roster size of 12 players including the 8 traditional position players, 2-3 back-up position players and 2-3 pitcher "only" players.  The important aspect here is for all players to have a deep understanding of their role and be given many opportunities to develop their specific skills associated with their role.

The 2021 team will explore Fall Ball tournament options with weekly practices at Hamlin Park and/or Kerry Wood Field in August, September and October.  

Off-season workouts will begin in November with 2-3 weekly team practices, including hitting, defense, pitching and core strength/conditioning.  Coach Kapp and Coach Kuna will be the returning primary coaches.  Off-season team workouts will continue on this schedule leading up to the high school baseball season which is currently considering a May-June schedule.   
 
The team will play a tournament schedule from late-June thru early-August which includes local and destination tournaments against high level competition.  

If you have ANY questions about this format, roster or schedule, please speak with Coach Kapp at the number below.
