TRYOUT INFORMATION

We are looking to add new players to all of our Hooligans teams. New to club baseball? Don’t worry about it! Everyone has to start somewhere. Maybe you are looking for a competitive team? We have those too. Our goal is to develop all players and put them in the best position to succeed and grow as a player and a person.

We mean it when we say that we want to help our players become better people. The Hooligans are active in the community and regularly volunteer with local non-profits. Additionally, all players are expected to achieve success in the classroom as well. We conduct periodic grade checks to ensure players are excelling on and off the field.  

All teams will participate in the USSSA Fall League and various local tournaments. To prepare for these events teams will practice indoors twice per week, attend strength training classes twice per week, participate in an arm care program once per week, and have fielding practice once per week. We know, it seems like a lot, but many of these practices are done on the same nights. Parents and players can expect to be at the MAC (our indoor facility) twice per week and attend field practice once per week on Saturdays at Rio Rancho Middle School.

Come be a part of Rio Rancho’s premier youth baseball program!

Player’s age group is based on their age as of May 1st, 2024 (e.g. a 10u player cannot turn eleven before May 1st, 2024/ a 13u player can turn fourteen after May 1st 2024).

  • 8u-10u players
    • Tryout at the McDermott Athletic Center Friday, June 16th from 6:00pm-8:00pm (801 Loma Colorado Blvd. Rio Rancho, NM 87124)
