Program Overview:

Verona Baseball Tournament Teams (VBTT) are an extension of Verona Little League and governed by the Verona Little League Board. All VBTT players must play in the VLL spring season.

We strongly believe in player development. In addition to offering more competitive game opportunities, development of the player through additional training opportunities is essential both for individual players and the teams they play on. Our coaches are involved in a variety of training opportunities, players participate in winter shed and other indoor winter/early spring training, and in-season practices.

Read the Verona Tournament Team Overview in its entirety to understand the try-out process and set expectations for the program.

Team Expectations and Commitment Level:

Sportsmanship, commitment, and communication are expected from players and parents of VBTT. With an increased level of competition, an increased level of commitment is also expected. Each team will have designated team practices and tournaments throughout the season; the number of each is subject to the coaches of each team. The tournament team baseball season is defined as April 1 to August 1. Coaches have discretion in collaboration with the team's parent to schedule outside of these parameters. All teams will have training opportunities throughout the "off-season".

Attendance at practices and games during the season is vital and may play a factor in playing time and positions played. Communication to coaches is imperative if practices or games are to be missed. Please let your coach know of any planned vacations or other conflicts that will prevent attendance at practices and games. Ability to commit may play a role in VBTT selection.

It is not the intention for a VBTT practice to conflict with a regular season Verona Little League (VLL) game, and VLL will work with VBTT coaches to minimize potential conflicts. It is understood that players may have vacations, illness, injuries, family obligations, or other emergencies that will prevent attendance. Up front communication about pre-planned absences to the coach is imperative. We understand the value of playing multiple sports and respect the time commitments that players have made to other sports that are not during the baseball season. VBTT coaches will work with their players to try and minimize offseason conflicts.

It is for this reason we have implemented Orange, Black, & Gray teams.

Orange team players must be able to commit to 7-10 tournaments and attend regularly scheduled practices.

Black team players commit to 5-8 tournaments and regularly scheduled practices.

Grey team (if numbers and volunteers warrant a 3rd team) players commit to 3-6 tournaments and regularly scheduled practices.

8U: Teams will be divided equally based upon skill level. They should play 4-6 tournaments. This is an entry level experience for those interested in tournament baseball. There will not be an Orange and Black level designation at this level.

9U-14U: Teams will first be determined based-upon a player’s choice of commitment level. Teams will then be divided by skill level. The “Orange” team will consist of the highest ranking players that are willing to meet the commitment level required.
