Subject: Jr. Dukes Baseball Tryouts

Just a reminder to register your son/daughter for tryouts today.

Please encourage your son/daughter NOT to wear any past Jr. Dukes Baseball attire (shirt or cap) to tryouts.

Please complete our 2017 Jr. Dukes Baseball Survey https://goo.gl/forms/Ms5ZRfQdZbYDMr3I3

You can give your name or you can be completely anonymous.  I am the only one who sees the results.

I use this to help improve our program and to help evaluate our coaches.  Your feedback is appreciated.

The Whitefish Bay Jr. Dukes Baseball Club will be holding player evaluations for the 2018 baseball season on Saturday, July 15, Sunday, July 16th  and Sunday, July 23rd .  

Please register on the Jr. Dukes Website at http://www.leaguelineup.com/welcome.asp?url=wfbyb

Each player must register for tryouts by July 12^th.    We only communicate through email so please register to receive our updates.

Go to the main menu and select RSVP for Player Evaluations & Coaching Interest.

Players should register and adults should notify Jr. Dukes that they are interested in head or assistant coaching.

Players must attend one (and only one) of these tryout dates. 

Players should come to the tryout ready to play baseball with their glove, bat and cleats.  They don’t need to wear baseball pants in the heat so shorts are fine.  Please arrive 15 minutes early.

Players are selected to each team by their 2017/2018 school grade, however, players cannot be older than their age group before April 30^th to play in tournaments.

• For example:  U11 players cannot become 12 years old before April 30^th.  If they do, they will need to try out for the next grade up (U12 in this example).  Contact me about that.

Jr. Dukes Teams

U9                                          There will be one team consisting of 15 players

U10 – 8^th grade                  Our goal is to have two teams at each grade (An “A” Blue and a “B” White team based on enough players to compete) with 11 – 13 players per team

In order to play Jr. Dukes baseball, each U9 – U12 player must play in Whitefish Bay Little League.  In order to play in WFBLL, each player must either live in Whitefish Bay or go to school in Whitefish Bay.

Thanks,
