Senators 13YO Tryouts & Evaluation 3/8, 6:30-9:30 pm @ Barcroft 6 : We will email players with a 1-hour window for their tryout/evaluation. If a player cannot make their scheduled time, please respond to the email and we will attempt to schedule another time. If your player cannot make this date, we will do our best to schedule a supplemental tryout, though field space is extremely limited at this time.
ASBR Prep Season — Early March-Early June: All 13YO Senators players are required to play in the ASBR Prep Division (“House”) in the spring. Senators practices will take priority over House practices, but House games take priority over Senators practices. Senators and House coaches work closely together to ensure players are getting maximum reps while staying healthy, particularly with pitching. Register for the Prep Season here. Senators 13s Spring/Summer Season: Due to the change in the high school schedule, the NVTBL season will be starting and ending later (3/27-7/14). Senators teams will begin practicing in mid-March and travel play will begin on 3/27 and will continue through the end of the NVTBL season. This will allow for more game play combined with increased frequency of games and competitive scrimmages during the season to allow players more opportunities to improve through competitive play. We understand that vacation plans may create a need for roster adjustments after the school year ends. We will work with parents to ensure flexibility with consistent opportunity for players. Senators & ASBR All-Stars Summer Partnership: All spring ASBR Prep Division players are eligible to try out for the ASBR summer All-Star team. Senators Baseball will be working with ASBR to ensure that as many Senators players as possible will have opportunities to play throughout the summer. As in other years, the priority will be the ASBR All-Star team. This will be the “elite” team and will take priority over continued Senators games. Players interested in playing the remainder of the summer and not participating on the ASBR All-Star team may be given the opportunity to play NVTBL Summer League through the end of July and potentially into August. This will NOT be tournament play. |

Saturday 2/27, 1-4 pm Barcroft 6/Tucker Field Register here for Senators Tryouts and Evaluations |
Senators 14YO Tryouts and Evaluation 2/27, 1-4 pm @ Barcroft 6: We will hold tryouts and returning player evaluations a little early this year. We hope to have all 14YO Senators players selected before the ASBR Shamrock Season begins (see below). We will email players with a 1-hour window for their tryout/evaluation. If a player cannot make their scheduled time, please respond to the email and we will attempt to schedule for another time. We will also make accommodations for players who make their high school teams.
NOTE—Even if you plan to try out for your high school program this year, we encourage you to join Senators as well. Senators 14s Spring/Summer Season: Due to the change in the high school schedule, the NVTBL season will be starting and ending later (3/27-7/14). Senators teams will begin travel play as soon as the Shamrock season ends and will continue through the end of the NVTBL season. This will allow for more game play combined with increased frequency of games and competitive scrimmages during the season to allow players more opportunities to improve through competitive play. We understand that vacation plans may create a need for roster adjustments after the school year ends. We will work with parents to ensure flexibility with consistent opportunity for players. ASBR Shamrock Season — Early March and ending before High School Tryouts: All Senators players are strongly encouraged to play in the new Shamrock Division specifically constructed for players intending to try out for their high school teams (which Senators Baseball also strongly encourages all 8th graders to do). This division will allow our 8th graders to play competitively both with and against other existing and prospective JV players in Arlington. Senators coaches will be involved, so this will be the primary way Senators players will get game action in March. Also NOTE that participation in Shamrock Division play WILL qualify players for participation on the summer ASBR All-Star team (more details below). Senators not playing Shamrock will be required to play ASBR Alliance. Register for Shamrock or Alliance here. Senators 14s During Shamrock: Senators 14YOs WILL practice each week as an organization to prepare for game play immediately at the conclusion of the Shamrock season. We expect these to be Sunday, 2-hour practice sessions as field space allows. Senators & ASBR All-Stars Summer Partnership: Senators Baseball will be working with ASBR to ensure that as many Senators players as possible will have opportunities to play throughout the summer. As in other years, the priority will be the ASBR All-Star team and the Babe Ruth tournament trail. This will be the “elite” team and will take priority over continued Senators games. Players interested in playing the remainder of the summer and not participating on the ASBR All-Star team will be given the opportunity to play NVTBL Summer League through the end of July and potentially into August. This will NOT be a tournament play. |

Rising 13s for Fall 2021 Teams Sunday, 3/7, 4-7 p.m. Barcroft 6/Tucker Field Register here for Senators Tryouts |
Senators Rising 13YO Tryouts Sunday 3/7, 4-7pm @ Barcroft 6: Current 12-year-old players seeking to play travel ball can begin their transition to “The Big Field” by trying out for our fall Senators team. We will email players with a 1-hour window for their tryout/evaluation. If a player cannot make their scheduled time, please respond to the email and we will attempt to schedule for another time. If your player cannot make this date, we will do our best to schedule a supplemental tryout, though field space is extremely limited at this time. We will hold supplemental tryouts in late August as we understand that players grow and change significantly at this age and want to give every Arlington player the maximum opportunity to participate.
Senators 13s Fall Season: Senators teams will hold optional practices beginning in August. Games will begin after Labor Day and continue through early November. Fall baseball for 13s will be focused on intensive practices to transition to the 90-foot diamond, combined with competitive play through the Northern Virginia Travel Baseball League (NVTBL). As the season progresses, Senators coaches will ramp up frequency of game play and competitive scrimmages to allow players more opportunities to improve through competitive play. ASBR Fall Prep Season — Early September-Late October (OPTIONAL): All 13yo Senators players are required to play in the ASBR Prep Division (“House”) in the spring. In the fall, playing House ball is optional. Many players choose to play House as well as Senators to help with the transition to the 90-foot diamond. But players choosing only Senators will not be penalized. Senators & ASBR All-Stars Summer Partnership: All spring ASBR Prep Division players are eligible to try out for the ASBR summer All-Star team. Senators Baseball will be working with ASBR to ensure that as many Senators players as possible will have opportunities to play throughout the summer. As in other years, the priority will be the ASBR All-Star team. This will be the “elite” team and will take priority over continued Senators games. Players interested in playing the remainder of the summer and not participating on the ASBR All-Star team may be given the opportunity to play NVTBL Summer League through the end of July and potentially into August. This will NOT be tournament play. |
