The first week of January tryouts will be held for the Garden City FIRE u-11 and Garden City Vipers u-11 spring/summer travel baseball teams. Eligible players must live or attend school in Garden City and must be age 11 or younger before August 1, 2005. Tryouts for both teams will be held on the same night. Boys that played this past fall season for either the FIRE or the VIPERS do NOT need to try out for their existing team (returning Viper players may opt to tryout for the FIRE and FIRE players may also tryout for the Vipers). New players will be trying out for open roster spots on these existing teams.

Travel play consists of mostly Sunday doubleheaders or Friday night doubleheaders depending upon the team and league. Play should not interfere with regular GCAA baseball and travel players making these teams are also expected to enroll in GCAA baseball.

Exact location of the tryout has not yet been finalized. For more details or information on the tryout or the season please contact: Scott Kiley at (516) 746-1698 Garden City FIRE; Mike O'Hare at (516) 248-7711 Garden City VIPERS.
