2002 Tryouts: 14 and 15 year old tryouts for the Jr. Legion Team begin on Saturday, April 6th 1:00 PM at the Orefield Middle School varsity field (rain or shine).  Your baseball age is how old you will be on July 31, 2002.  As a 15 year old player, you are eligible to play either Jr. Legion or Connie Mack at North Parkland.  It is a PA State Rule we can only keep a maximum of twelve 15 year old players on the Junior Legion Team.  It is for this reason that we stress the importance of commitment from our players.
