Travel Baseball Teams In TN.

[Tnsportnut]

There is some great teams that particpate in World Series events from Tn. in past several years in Majors and AAA. Was wanting to know who was the teams to look for in all ages and the best tournaments to prove your team is the real deal if you win.

My son plays in the 12 year old division this year. There are some great teams at this age group from Tn. Some of the best teams that I know of at this age group are:

Shoetiques - Knoxville Impact - Juice - Jackson Coyotes - Knoxville Stars - Memphis Travlers - Franklin Heat - and a new team that just formed called the Tn Dores. I may have missed someone and if so I apologize but these are the most competitive teams that I have seen at this age group over the past couple of years.

 

Game Day Baseball in Memphis has some excellent tournaments to test your metal. There are a couple of tournaments that draws talent from all over the country. One is Border Wars and the other is Battle of the South which pulls teams from as far away as California. USSSA does a great job at posting real time results for thier AAA and Majors tournaments. There are always Tn teams in the mix in each of those World Series events.

 

I am not as familiar with some of the other age groups but know that Tn has some of the best talent in the southeast.

I've seen several of these teams play in the past couple of years even though my son plays in 13 yrs. old.

The Memphis Tigers also has a great team in that age division but the team to watch very closely is the Jackson Coyotes for they have had a couple players that has been playing older to drop back and play that will help them greatly.

 

There is a team from Mississippi called Terminators that has alot of Memphis kids on the team. It's the best 12 yr. old team i've seen in this age division. I know i ask about who was the best in TN. Thought it was worth mentioning.

 

Thanks for the reply

I know it was fall baseball,but the Nashville Legends were the best team in mid-state,they had pitching,hitting and were a very good fielding team,they were a 12u team out of north middle tn.

The Tennessee Dores are going to make huge waves this season. They have GREAT coaches and some great players. They tryed out almost 90 players last fall. Look out for this team.

[Shoetiques Baseball]

In TN for 11s, Chiefs Baseball (they technically may be out of Dalton/N. GA) won Cooperstown last year for 10s.

Other top 11s....Memphis Tigers, Knoxville Stars, Shoetiques 11s, TN Ravens, Murfreesboro Warriors in no particular order.

I agree with the 12U Legends, we played against them last Fall (playing up) and although we stayed with them 3-4 innings they are potent.

This weekend should prove some of the best teams in all ages (April 4th-6th) in Atlanta in the super NIT road to Disney tournament. Very good teams will be there wanting to prove themselves you have to go very deep in pitching to win this one. This tournament and the one at Rockwood is the toughest tournaments in the South to win,

Not to take anything away from the Shoetiques (they've been a top program in the state for many years), or the TN Dores, but the Nashville Fury might should be added to this list. This is a new team this year also and they beat the TN Dores and lost by one run in the final inning to the Shoetiques this past weekend.

Just a note that is relavent to this topic and the Shoetiques. John Mitchell - the coach of the 12 year old Shoetique team was recently inducted into the Metro Schools Sports Hall of Fame. Congratulations John!!! We are all very proud of you and your contributions to developing young baseball players that learn to play the game the right way!!!! /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

The Strike Zone STIXX -- 15U team out of Ripley are really good. They just played a double header vs. the JCS JV and won both games. Team is made up of 1 8th grader, 8 Freshmen and 3 Sophomores. Those are grades they will be for the '08-'09 school year.

Would the Stixx be interested in picking up another player for a tournament. I'm a freshman looking for a good triple A or major team to play with this summer.
