Rec Travel Orientation & Tryout Information
Just as our rec leagues prepare to take the field for the first time this weekend, our recreational travel teams – involving players who participate in our league but are eager for a chance to play even more baseball and softball – are getting ready for the season, too. Twoi important activities are scheduled this week.
Rec Travel Orientation on Wednesday Night
A special pre-tryout meeting for all parents who are interested in their child trying out for one of OYO’s rec travel baseball or softball teams will take place this Wednesday, March 14, at 7 p.m. at Sterrett Center (8950 Otis Avenue).
While this meeting is particularly for families of players who have played Red Storm or Bombers before, all eligible families are welcome. We will provide an overview of our rec travel program, introduce the coaches, and cover key topics related to the travel experience.
