Welcome to the 4th year of the Upstate Chill baseball organization. Our "Chill" family
has grown since our 2008-2009 inaugural season. We will now field 5 teams for our 2011-2012 season (12u, 13u, 14u,
15u, 16u). We compete in summer tournaments only as not to interefere with school ball. Teams at the 16u levels
will compete in major college showcases and 14u-16u teams will have the opportunity to attend various college prospect clinics
over the off-season.
All teams can travel
up to 7 hours (most are 3-4 hrs) from the Corning, NY area to compete in tournaments with some of the best Northeast
teams.
Our goal and responsibility as a select sports
organization is to develop and cultivate young athletes, not only to prepare them for the challenges of playing ball,
but also the challenges in life. All coaches, trainers and managers are passionate and dedicated to the proper development
of:
- baseball mechanics & fundamentals
- preventing
injuries
- sportsmanship
- character development both on and off
the field
- self confidence
- respect & integrity
- positive peer relationships
- importance of education and grades
2010 14U TEAM (current 16u team)
