11U - 2021 Franklin Crew Classic Champions
U11 2018 Reedsburg Tournament Champions
Age:
Will consist of players 12 and under and 11 and under (with birth date cut offs defined by national rules – April 30th) segregated into teams at each age level (12U and 11U).
Philosophy:
This program is designed to be a competitive program that plays in the Badgerland Juniors League. Diamonds will have 50’ pitching mounds with 70’ bases. Middleton may assemble as many teams in the age groups as is deemed fitting for a given season. The number of teams that are selected will be decided by the League Director with the approval of the MBSC Baseball Subcommittee.
Evaluations:
All players 12 and under who are interested in playing baseball will sign up for the Pepper program. Those who wish for a more competitive experience can participate in an evaluation to play on a competitive baseball team. Evaluations for competitive play will be held in March to allow for the selection of teams. Players for the competitive baseball program are selected through an evaluation which combine a workout as well as any previous experience that a player has had in the MBSC Baseball program. During this evaluation process players and families will be asked about their level of commitment to baseball for the upcoming season.
It is our intent to find a place and a team for all kids in the baseball program. Those that are not chosen to play competitive baseball will be placed in the Pepper Program.
Competitive Play Options:
The makeup of the teams each year will be decided by a combination of registration numbers and level of commitment expressed by the players/families. The decision on the number of teams, composition of the teams, and competitive play options will be decided by the League Director, with approval from the Baseball Subcommittee.
Depending on the circumstances each year, options for competitive baseball may include some or all of the following:
Team Composition:
Teams will have a maximum of 15 players and are typically comprised of 12-14 players. Teams are organized based on the results of the evaluation, previous experience in the program, and stated level of commitment. Players who score the highest during evaluations will be provided an opportunity to play on the team equal to their stated level of commitment. Players who were not ranked near the top during the evaluation process may be placed on a team with a lower level of commitment than their stated desire.
