Glen Ellyn Youth Baseball Full-Time Travel Tryouts Held August 4 & 5
The Glen Ellyn Park District will hold tryouts for the 2013 spring full-time travel program August 4 & 5.
Tryouts will be conducted by Glen Ellyn Youth Baseball, a volunteer association that assists the park district with its baseball program, for teams at the 10U, 11U, 12U, 13U and 14U levels. Up to 24 players may be selected at each age group and divided into two teams prior to the season.
The birthdate cutoff for each age group is May 1. The fee is $1,050 per player, which may be reduced by team fundraising. Players will be evaluated by staff members from the White Sox Academy.
