BASEBALL - $85 SPYA will be offering a Fall Baseball Program in the ULM League. The program is designed to teach the fundamentals of baseball in a less competitive environment. The season is made up of practice time and scrimmages against other teams. The season ends with a competitive doubleelimination tournament for each division. This is a great way for players moving up to the next level to become familiar with the longer base and pitching distances. SPYA is limiting the number of players in each division due to field availability. The league that we play in does not allow players to play for any other team during the fall season. Rookies Division (56 players max) – 60’ Bases – 8-9 year olds – Can't be 10 before May 1, 2013 Minors Division (56 players max) – 70’ Bases – 10-11 year olds – Can’t be 12 before May 1, 2013 Juniors Division (56 players max) – 80’ Bases – 12-14 year olds – Can’t be 15 before May 1, 2013 Seniors Division (30 players max) – 90’ bases – 15-17 year olds – Can’t be 18 before May 1, 2013

FIELD HOCKEY Fall 2013, the program will have 2 levels: Tiny Trojans- Cost is $90; Kindergarten through 2nd grade. The season runs September through the end of October. This is an introduction to field hockey and is instructional. Practices will be 1x per week for 1 hour a week on a Saturday or Sunday morning. Parents need to provide shin guards, cleats, mouth guards, eye protection. SPYA will provide a loaner stick to be issued and collected at practices. You must be 5 years old and must be entering Kindergarten to be eligible to play. A copy of a birth certificate is needed at time of registration. All Tiny Trojans need to provide their t-shirt size and height for stick sizing at time of registration. Junior Trojans- Cost is $125. 3rd-6th grades.

Pending enrollments and league developments, we may hold try-outs for travel teams within our Junior Trojans. If we split the program and your child does not make a travel team, your child will be automatically placed into instructional/intramural play. Travel teams will have games on either a Saturday or a Sunday. If enrollments do not permit both an instructional/intramural and travel team, we will offer just the travel program as we have in the past.
