There are opportunities for 15 – 17 year old players to play on seniors teams, however it is recommended to first have experience playing at a juniors level first and discuss options with the club.
As baseball continues to grow in popularity, there are growing generations of families moving up the junior competitions who want to continue playing baseball in the senior competitions. We have had a number of father/sons or daughters on the same team in recent years. Registrations typically occur in July/August for summer competitions and February/March for winter competitions.
