Blizzard Spring Program

 

The Blizzard Spring program is our longest standing program developing players and teams ages 9u-14u.  Tryouts are typically in the fall and early winter where players will be evaluated on hitting, pitching and defense.  Typically, there are 11-13 players / team with 2 coaches slotted for every age group.  

Our primary purpose in the Blizzard Spring Program is to show young players what we have to offer including our culture, values and how we teach.  Our goal is also help players get a jump start on their summer season, train hard twice a week and compete!
