12U Red Rules at Ripken

The LJB 12U Red team overcame extreme heat and storms this past weekend to take home the Ripken High Heat Classic Championship. They had a record of 5-0 while giving up a total of 18 runs and scoring 54. This is their 3rd tournament Championship this season!

 

10U Red - Another Tournament Title

The 10U Red team wrapped up its spring/summer season with another tournament championship! This weekend's (July 24-25) Blue Mountain Battle FSTB tournament in Hershey was shortened to a one-day event due to severe thunderstorms, but the team came out with blazing bats on Saturday to outscore their opponents 24 to 3! Their performance on Saturday gave them the number one seed out of ten teams and ultimately the tournament title. The 10U Red team earned two first place finishes and two second place finishes this year...not bad for a group of nine and ten year-olds who never played tournament baseball before this year! Congratulations!

 

15U Red - The Elite of the Elite

Congratulations to the 15U Red team on another tournament title! On July 17-18 they battled in the Elite Baseball Showcase and came out on top. Even more impressive is that this tournament was open to 16U teams...congratulations guys!

 

10U Red Takes the SWS Wooden Bat Championship

The 10U team combined a potent offense with a solid defensive and pitching performance to go 3-0 and win the SWS Wooden Bat title! Using wooden bats was a great experience, but seeing how the balls were flying, there wasn't much of an adjustment necessary...congratulations boys!

Take a look at a few photos from the tournament...

 

Another Win for 16U Red

It seems that everytime the 16U Red team enters a tournament, they emerge with another title. This past weekend was no different - add Berkshire Champs to their growing list of titles! Congratulations guys!

Thank You!

On behalf of the Lancaster Junior Barnstormers Baseball Club, Bob Gantz and I would like to thank each and every one of you for your continued support, inspirational emails, unsolicited phone calls, encouraging words and constructive criticism as we move forward to our 4th season together.

As many of you know who run local baseball, softball, basketball, football, soccer, field hockey, lacrosse, hockey, and tennis organizations, it is not as easy as it seems. We have made mistakes throughout the years and we have learned from each and everyone of them.

As we move forward to 2010-2011,
  • We have implemented new options for our LJB's families including an annual membership to the Centrally Located Baseball Facilities at Lanco Field House, uniform jersey options for each team, baseball pants options (good, better and best), and more team oriented community service options.
  • We will no longer have mandatory Barnstormer ticket sales or blood drives (for the people who hate needles).  We will have fundraising options (non-mandatory) through My Sports Dreams for families that need a little more help.
  • We will have more team oriented fundraiser option for teams going to Cooperstown, Omaha, Myrtle Beach, etc.
As we move forward and realize that there are other options available to each travel baseball family, we understand that watering down the local baseball talent only hurts the players and families involved. Playing 3 games a weekend compared to 5-7 makes a difference physically, mentally and financially. The more competitive baseball games your son plays in, the better your son will get.

In 2010, the LJB's have won first place championships in 6 of our 7 age groups. Half of our teams have won 2 or more championships!! I know that winning isn't everything, but I can tell you this - when your son gets to his high school years, he is more likely to be seen by college and professional scouts/recruiters/coaches if he plays well into the showcase tournaments.

In closing, we look forward to seeing everyone at the upcoming tryouts @ Hempfield High School Campus on
August 14th @ 8am.

Thanks Again,
Larry Hess
