When
Travel baseball teams are formed shortly after tryouts. Some teams may elect to play in some fall/winter tournaments. Indoor practices follow, usually starting in January. The official season begins in April and will continue through July, possibly into August.
Where
Outdoor practices are held at Harris Fields in Granger. Our indoor facility is in Niles, MI. Tournaments are held within a couple hours from Granger (Michigan City, Portage, LaPorte, Indianapolis).
Practices
Team managers and field availability decide frequency of practices. This frequency can change from season to season.
Games
The quantity of games also depends on the manager and team families preferences. Some teams may elect to play in 8 tournaments, where others might play in more. Most baseball tournaments will have a 3 or 4 game minimum for the weekend.
Jerseys
Yes, jerseys, pants, and hats are provided within the team budget. Uniforms are ordered as a program in the winter. Managers will decide on quantity and design of the uniforms, within certain boundaries.
Costs
Managers dictate the cost of the season. Managers attempt to forecast the cost of uniforms, indoor facility use, and tournament fees for the season. That cost is divided amongst the team. At times, extra tournaments could cause an additional fee, but managers will discuss this with families. You can expect to pay for gate fees, parking fees and travel fees associated with the tournaments. Teams might also use sponsor funds and/or fundraising funds to offset the cost of player fees or tournament fees.
