Vancouver Mounties Bantam AAA Tryout Information!
We welcome you to Tryout for the Vancouver Mounties Bantam AAA team.  The Mounties play in B.C.

Tryouts are open to ANY PLAYER WHO RESIDES IN VANCOUVER COMMUNITY's Boundaries born in 1997 or 1998.

Bantam AAA is a single season format providing the highest calibre of baseball for this age group.  The league has teams from the Okanagan to the Lower Mainland and over on Vancouver Island.  The Mounties will play 70+ games this season including exhibition games, league play, and tournaments.  Our season runs from practices in early March through to the middle of August and the season concludes with a Provincial Championship, a Western Canadian Championship, and a Canadian National Championship for the top team in the province. 

The Mounties AAA program promotes a positive team atmosphere with an emphasis on skill development, physical fitness, team play, discipline, and respect for opponents, officials, and the game.  Although being a Mountie is a big commitment, the coaches recognize that there are other distractions during the baseball season (school, other sports etc.) and as such we will work with each player to fit baseball into their schedules.  We ask that the players be available for games and the majority of the practices.

The Mounties Bantam AAA program is designed to prepare young ballplayers to move up to higher levels of play (Midget AAA and BC Premier Baseball League) and to eventually compete for roster spots in showcase events like the BC Summer Games, Pacific Northwest Championships, and the Arizona Fall Classic.

We look for players who want to work hard, improve, and excel.  If you have the desire to play at this level and end up making the team, we can assure you that you will get playing time.

The Coaches for the team are Ted Pawlick, Sonny Sengara, Todd Mundle, John Russell and Teddy Pawlick.  Combined this coaching staff have many years of baseball experience and Level 2 National Coaching qualifications.

The Mounties encourage everyone to try out for Bantam AAA this year and can promise a rewarding and competitive season of baseball.

Anyone who resides in Vancouver who would like more information regarding the Mounties program please contact Ted Pawlick bearshar@telus.net or 604 872-4996 (home)
