Jr. Legion baseball is for players with born on or after January 1, 2008.
We will field one team at this age level. This is the most competitive age division in our baseball program. Playing time is earned and not given at this level. There will be a defined number of players rostered, and cuts will be made if necessary.
Practices for teams in this age group are typically Monay-Friday mid to late-afternoons on non-game days. Game times will range with starting times anywhere from 2pm to 6:30pm. We typically play teams from Perham, Fergus Falls, Detroit Lakes, Thief River Falls, Moorhead, Alexandria and Eastern North Dakota. We will play in one or two weekend tournaments. This team will also play in a year end district tournament and possible state tournament. We typically bus teams to most out-of-town games.
The Jr. Legion team will begin in early June and run through late-July or first week or August.
