Thank You!
Jun 04 2009 - DK

A great big "THANK YOU" goes out to all of our players, coaches, parents and fans and baseball board members for making this past Spring another successful season at T&C!  We had 1,100 players competing on 93 teams, making this one of T&C's busiest spring seasons yet.

Coaches, you do a great job and we appreciate all your hard work in teaching the players more about the game, bringing each player up to their next level and having fun along the way.  Thank you for helping us maintain our fields and contributing to the baseball program.

Thank you parents and fans for your support of our program.  We have about 40 volunteer baseball board members who do a lot behind the scenes to make all of this possible.  Several hundred hours are invested to ensure that uniforms and equipment are ordered, teams are formed and games are played.  When you think that most of our board members are also coaching teams, you can appreciate all the "extra" volunteer work they put in to make this happen for your player.  We have the best volunteer board in the area to match the excellent playing conditions at T&C.

Be sure to watch the website for our upcoming Fall Season registration, scheduled to start mid-July.  Have a safe and fun summer - we'll see you at the T&C Yard soon!

MVP Baseball Camp

MVP BASEBALL CAMP

If you are looking for a place to learn the game of baseball I think you have found it. The goal of the MVP Baseball Camp is to develop the skills of young players by focusing on the fundamentals of the game.

In order to accomplish this goal I will provide a good player to coach ratio and as many opportunities for your child as possible. By developing the fundamental skills of hitting, fielding, and throwing each player will build a solid foundation for success. Each camp will focus on these skills as well as scrimmage games to apply what is being taught in live game situations.

About Town and Country Baseball
The T&C Baseball association was formed in the early 1970's to provide a quality, safe place for children to learn and enjoy the game of baseball.  Over the years the T&C Baseball association has grown in size nowserving approximately 1200 players during the spring season.

The T&C baseball program is still as it has always been a program run 100% by parents and other volunteers, including board members and coaches. We have divisions for children as young as 4 and as old as 18 to play, learn, and enjoy the game of baseball at all skill levels.  Please review our website for additional information and feel free to contact one of the coordinators if you have questions not answered on the site.

There are really 3 baseball seasons at T&C.  The spring season is by far the biggest.  Players register for the spring season in January, have tryouts in early February and begin practice later that month.  They play games form March 1st through the end of May. 

The start of June begins the Tournament season.  Some of the players that were registered and played in the spring season at T&C are selected to play on tournament teams, which play during some of the summer months.

In August, we register players to play in the fall season.  The fall season games usually start in early September and end at the end of October.

We are always looking for parents interested in volunteering to participate in our association if you are interested please check the calendar on the website for the date of our next board meeting or email one of our board members for information.
