All-Star/Select Tryouts 2008
Oakville Little League will be conducting the first round of tryouts for the following teams starting this weekend. The All-Star/Select program is a program set up by Little League to give an opportunity for more advanced players to compete at a higher level. The program is played mostly on weekends, and is a tournament-based team. Most teams will play 4-6 tournaments a year, most within the GTA, but there are opportunities for tournaments in Windsor/Detroit, Western New York, and Ottawa.
The All-Star/Select program is an ADDITION to the House League program, not a replacement for House League. There are costs involved with, and these costs typically run $300 - $400 for the season. These costs are to be incurred by the player and their family. Oakville Little League does not fund the cost of the program.
