Team Objectives

[Mc]

Lot's of advertisements lately for tryouts.  Let's find out what the ultimate tournament objectives are for each team. Coaches, post what your tournament objectives are and I'll populate the matrix. Could've put a column in for "Showcase", but that would fall under Open ONLY, I guess. This will also give everyone an idea on all the local select teams out there. If your team and/or coach is not listed, post on here and I'll add it. Most of the teams on here posted recently for tryout, the others are just by already knowing their intentions.

What do you mean by objectives? Is it what Association they are in or what?

[Mc]

Goals. All teams should have goals established and parents of potential players should have an idea on what level of play they want to get involved in. Specific team goals can vary from skill development, qualification to national tournaments, winning a national tournament, college exposure, social recreational activities, etc. or a multiple of these goals.  The subject would be broad, so, for starters, I narrowed it down to each team's primary level of play objective based on association, assuming the team's goals to be qualifying for nationals in ASA or participating in nationals for the other associations listed.

Its not intended to be a witch hunt and would appreciate a positive and open tone from anyone with comments. I feel like this would be a great way to assist a parent of a potential player to find the team best suited for their wants and needs. Could also serve as an educational tool for parents of the younger age groups to recognize the different associations and how they differ.

[Armchair Quarterback]

Not sure how to update the Original post but hope Mc will populate for us.
Each one of the YG tams are dedicated to player development. That is one of the reasons for the new hitting facility.
The 16U team (wich is last years 14U team) will be playing alot of college exposure tournaments.
Our 14U team is coached by John Chirafis and Buddy Andrus.
All of our teams will be playing "A" class and very actively playing ASA, IFA, USFA and USSSA tournaments.
The YG Organization teams will also support local "fund-raiser" tournaments no matter the affiliation
just like we have in years past to help all Golden Triangle Teams.
The 14U team will be making the trip to Ridgeland, Ms in a couple of weeks for ASA Southern Nat's and
Ronald McDonald later in the year and other tournaments in between and after Ronald Mc.
Our 14U team will have played well over 150 games by the end of the year
and all of our new teams will follow this same trend for years to come.

Keep in mind that all of this is done with little money out of parrents pockets wich is another goal of the YG.

So I think this may help you with knowing where the YG teams are headed and what our goals are.
