At what ages are Westfield Rocks offered?

Westfield Rocks has a team at the following ages 9, 10, 11 & 12. We also plan on offering a second team at the ages where the level of interest and skill exist.

What is the age cut off?

The age cut off date is May 1st. For example if your child is 9 on May 1st he is eligible to play on the 9 year old team. Your child may try-out for any team he is eligible to try-out for. However, we strongly recommend that players play at their own grade level.

How many games do the travel teams play?

Each teams’ schedule will vary. During the 2007 season the 9 &10 year old team played 35 – 40 games and the 11 & 12 year olds played approx. 60 games.

How far do teams travel?

Each team’s schedule will vary. The teams travel locally with most games being played in the Indianapolis suburban area. Teams may decide to participate in an out of state tournament. Each year the 10 year old team is eligible to play in Cooperstown, NY. Home games are played at Shamrock Springs.

How long is the season?

Each team sets their own schedule. Typically a team will begin practices once a week in February and begin practicing twice a week in mid to late March. The season usually ends sometime in July.
