The Ajax Spartans Minor Baseball Association will be holding our Annual General Meeting at 7 pm on Tuesday, September 24th  2019 at the Lion’s Club of Ajax (500 Clements Rd West).

Congratulations and best of luck to all of our Ajax Spartans team who are moving on to the OBAs this weekend.

The Minor Rookie team who finished 1st in their EOBA ‘A’ playoffs and will be playing in Brantford.

Both Rookie teams are advancing with the AA team finishing 2nd in their playoffs and the A team finishing 3rd in their EOBA playoffs.

Both Minor Mosquito teams will also be playing.   The AA team will be hosting here in Ajax. And the A team is moving on after being finalists in their EOBA playoffs earlier this month.

Good luck this weekend Spartans!

Congrats to our Minor Rookie Spartans for winning the EOBA ‘A’ Championship!

Facing Clarington Orioles in the finals it was a close game but the Spartans fought hard and won 11-10.

Way to go Spartans! Good luck at the OBAs!

We are happy to announce our 2020 Rep tryouts.  Please register here and the full tryout schedule can be found here.

A few things to remember:

• Players interested in Rep Baseball must attend tryouts for all teams, offered at their respective age division, until they are offered a spot on a team or told they are not being selected
  • Example: Our Minor Mosquito division has both a AA and A team.  All players must attend the AA tryouts until cut.  Players may only attend the A tryouts if they have participated in the AA tryouts.  This rule will be upheld at all age levels.  There will be no exceptions
• Rep Baseball is not for everyone, however it can be a very memorable experience for players and families alike.

Some questions you may have:

• Will I have to give up all of my summer weekends? 
  • Teams typically play in 2-4 weekend tournaments per season plus 1 or 2 playoff tournaments. 1 or 2 of those tournaments may require overnight stays
• Is Rep Baseball expensive? 
  • Rep team costs average about $1100-$1300, per player.  While costs are higher than house league, Rep players will receive off season training and development, play their home games at the Ajax Sportsplex fields and are provided with professional style uniforms.  Team sponsorship and fundraising can also reduce costs for families
• Is my child good enough to play Rep Baseball?
  • As they say, you never know until you try.  Ajax Baseball offers Rep Baseball at all age levels, and most levels include multiple teams, i.e. A/AA

 It is an exciting time to be a part of Ajax Baseball.  We are hosting the Rep Minor Mosquito Provincial Championship tournament in both 2019 and 2020.  We’ve just completed the tryouts for our three 2020 Elite teams, and several of our teams are going to their own Provincial Championships in 2019.

Thank you and we’ll see you at tryouts!
