REGISTER NOW! September 13 tryout clinic led by the Irondale Knights Baseball high school staff! 12pm-3pm split into 2 sections by age group (12-1:30 & 1:30-3pm). Dust off the cleats and head to the field to sharpen your skills. For those who are on the fence about trying out for traveling for the Knights, this is a great chance to see how the tryout process works and to play some baseball with friends your age - no pressure to register, just play some ball and learn some skills!

Tryouts are the following Sunday morning (9/20) - make sure to get registered today!

Important read from Minnesota Youth Athletic Services - MYAS - we are proud supporters of and participants in MYAS & Gopher State Baseball - MYAS, and this is why. Keep up the great work, Dawson & team!

Go Knights

"One of the challenges in today’s youth sports environment is balancing innovation with mission. There is a growing business of youth sports around us, including many excellent private and for-profit operators. MYAS must understand that landscape while remaining very clear about our WHY.

- We want our events to be exceptional.
- We want kids to feel celebrated.
- We want families to have great experiences.
- But we also want community and school-based youth sports to remain affordable, accessible, and rooted in local associations.

That is why the work we are doing around safety, sportsmanship, parent education, and better communication is every bit as important as running tournaments, events, and leagues."

The first of two IBL Tryout Clinics is this Sunday from 12pm-3pm! Time slots separated by age group. Kids do *not* need to be registered for travel to come to the clinic, it's a no pressure situation to have your player find out how the tryouts go, and get instruction from the Irondale High School coaches led by Andy Peterson!

Register for the August 30 clinic at the following link:

Irondale High School varsity coach Andy Peterson, in conjunction with IBL, will host a tryout clinic on Sunday, August 30th, to help prepare players for the upcoming traveling tryouts.
