Look for coaches and tryout schedules under the Bulletin Board Item: Select Program.
The main schedules for Select Teams can be found here: http://www.ntibaseball.com
The GYB Select program is designated for players and families who want to play in a more competitive environment. The program requires a long-term commitment that is expected by both player and the parents.
The Select programs are for players who have demonstrated a higher level of skills and maturity. There are typically additional costs associated with the program that require fundraising or out-of-pocket expenses. There can be significant time commitments for families due to additional practices and tournaments. The time commitment can be expected throughout the summers depending on the teams/coaches.
The objective is to promote from within and have GYB rec players move up.
All players must attend at least one tryout specific for desired team. Players will be selected by the team's Head Coach and Assistants. Players may tryout for more than one team; however, player will be required to attend tryouts for each team.
Each team is required to have a minimum of 10 players and a maximum of 12.
For AA - 75% of players will be GYB residents. A GYB resident is defined as a player who 1) lives in the City of Grapevine, 2) is a GCISD student or resdient of the GCISD district, 3) has played rec ball in GYB (this does not extend to a player who joined GYB as a "non resident" and has played a season or more for a GYB Select team--a player who starts in Select as a "non-resident" will remain a "non-resident" until such time that they reside in Grapevine and/or become a GCISD district resident/student.
For AAA - the percentage of players required to be GYB residents will be based on the Association the AAA teams are playing under. A GYB resident is defined as a player who 1) lives in the City of Grapevine or 2) is a GCISD student or resident of the GCISD district.
Effective Fall 2009, this division includes high school ages.
Colt/Varsity is for Ages 15 through 18. They play 6-7 innings depending on day of the week and number of games scheduled. Refer to NIT rules for details.
