Majors In-Season Sunday Travel Teams
The Majors Sunday In-Season Travel Series is designed to provide extra competition for kids who are keen on baseball and to help prepare them for tournament team play by participating in a weekly
game versus other Little League organizations throughout the Lower Mainland. Two groups will
be formed: a 11 / 12 age group and 9 / 10 age group. The program will run from April 16 to
June 4. Based on the pre-season assessment, 18 to 20 players for each age group will receive an
“invitation”. This will ensure players of similar skills level are playing with and against each
other. Click HERE for further details.
Minors Sunday Selects Series
The little league season is short and goes directly into summer tournament play. The Minors Sunday Selects Series is designed to provide additional development opportunities and help prepare them for tournament team play, both on the 8-Selects team for this season and those likely to participate on it next season.
Based on player interest and parent/volunteer support, there will be 2 – 4 teams created that will compete in skill games on Sundays throughout the season. Meaning spaced is limited to a maximum of 44 kids. Based on the pre-season assessment, players will receive an “invitation”. This will ensure players of similar skills level are playing with and against each other. A player receiving an invitation for the program, may not necessarily receive an invitation for summer 8 Selects team. And vice versa, a player not participating in the Sunday Select Series is still eligible to try-out for the summer 8 Selects team. Players not receiving an invitation are encouraged to register for one of the “open” Sunday training sessions. Click HERE for further details.
