Subscribe to our Newsletter⚾ ROXBOROUGH REBELS TRAVEL TEAM TRYOUTS ⚾
We are pleased to announce our tryout dates for the 2024 Roxborough Rebels travel baseball and softball teams. These teams are separate from our in-house league and are designed to unlock opportunities for players who are interested in playing more competitive baseball and softball and charting their path to being as ready as possible when they want to play at the high school level. Our youth travel teams will compete in local/regional tournaments and represent our league on the Cal Ripken & Babe Ruth tournament trail, which offers the opportunity to advance from district play to state, regional, and national World Series tournaments. 7U baseball is a developmental program (no district path) that we started three years ago and has been a huge success! Please read the page below for tryout dates, locations, and information.
14U+ Babe Ruth travel baseball team opportunities will be posted at a future date.

Age Eligibility FAQ - Q: Are players allowed to "play up"? A: It is our intent to operate as a best-in-class Cal Ripken/Babe Ruth league and field age-appropriate teams at each level. In instances where the number of players trying out in an age group doesn't allow for a full roster to be created or safety/skill risks are presented by our player evaluation team, the league will make these decisions based on what's in the best interest of the league, the teams, and all the players.
