Those who have turned 16 years old before May 1st of this year through those that turned 19 after Dec 31st of 2016 are eligible to play. The team is a member of the South Shore Sr Babe Ruth League and plays a 16-18 game regular season schedule (Half Home/Half away) throughout the month of June and early July with playoffs to follow. There are multiple openings on this years roster, all we ask is that those trying out be able to commit to the majority of the games and practices as forfeits have become an issue over the last few seasons.
