SWFL Baseball – Tampa – 14U try-outs

On Saturday January 17, 2015, SWFL Baseball will hold try-outs for their 14U team based out of Tampa, FL. Players must be willing to travel for practice and games. Try-outs are open to any and all 14 year old baseball players and any players who have the skill level to compete against the best 14 year olds in the country. “This is a step in the right direction for SWFL Baseball” said John Cedarburg, a founding member of the SWFL organization. “Mickey Rivera is a trusted baseball man who knows how to get the most out of talented young men and will be a great addition to the SWFL family.” The team plans on playing 6-7 tournaments throughout the spring and will travel to the best tournaments in the southeastern US during the summer months. “It will be a challenging schedule and one that I look forward to. It’ll be fun to compete against the best teams and see where we stack up” said Coach Rivera. Rivera, who has a son, Brendan, at High Point U in North Carolina sees this as a gateway to preparing young players for the challenges ahead saying “it’s tough to get to college, you have to be fundamentally sound, have good grades and have fun while playing the game, I hope we can accomplish all of these with this team” For more information please contact Coach Mickey Rivera at 813-454-9519 or e-mail him at mickeyrivera813@yahoo.com
