2024 10U Select Tryouts

There will be a tryout for the 2024 USSSA 10u team on Thursday, July 6th at 6:30 on Field A. In following the lead of past teams, selections will be based primarily on evaluation from coaches during 2023 season along with the tryout session on July 6th. Criteria being used to make these selections include, in no order of importance. -Attendance for games & practices -Coachability: paying attention, behavior & improving based on coach's feedback -Baseball Skills: hitting, fielding, throwing, running & understanding of baseball concepts Players must have been 9 years old or younger on May 1st, 2023 OR be entering the 4rd grade in the fall of 2023. This will be a significant time & financial commitment. Players will be expected to attend all practices & games arriving on time. Practices may begin in the fall of 2023 & then again in February or March of 2024. Games will begin in April. We are planning to play around 30-35 games (which could include some tournaments and potential travel). This will be a competitive team so playing time will not be equal for all players. The cost for this team could range between $200-$400 per player. We will try to do a fundraiser to help offset some of the costs. Any players not named to a USSSA team would still have the option to play in the EAA/AYBA 10U or 12U leagues depending on their birthdate. If you have any questions, contact Shaun Nienhueser at 402-885-1821 ([email protected]) or Brian Miller at 402-212-8754 or ([email protected]). If you are unable to attend on July 6th, please let us know prior to July 3rd to set up a separate time to tryout.
