The camp is free for all participants between the ages of 6-16. There is a participant limit, so early registration is recommended following the link in the comment section of this post. A link for Frequently Asked Questions regarding the camp can be found in the comments as well.
July cannot come soon enough to witness former Big Leaguers having the opportunity to teach our future Big Leaguers!
*Due to overwhelming interest, registration is 100% full for the camp at this time. There is potential for the registration limit to be increased and if so, we will communicate on our website, Facebook and via email as soon as that occurs*

Are You Interested in Becoming a Warriors Manager for the 2025 Season?
Here's your chance to let us know…
The WAA is looking for Tournament Team Manager’s for the next Spring/Summer Season.
Tournament Teams are age specific. These chosen teams of all-star players will compete in tournaments either during the season or after the season in July, in addition to the Sunday League from April to June.
Our Tournament Teams Program is in addition to our regular in-house teams. It allows for a select group of our in-house players to experience the regular in-house season as usual, plus allowing these higher skilled players the opportunity to play at a little more competitive level with additional games throughout the season. One way to think of our Warriors team is a "Part-Time Traveling All Star Team".
While there is much more information to convey, specific details will be discussed with a final group of candidates at a later date. However, any general questions will be answered via e-mail. Along with your interest, please indicate facts that would make you the ideal candidate!
Tryouts for players will be held in July/August of this year for the next Spring/Summer Season. If you have any questions please contact us.
Applications must be submitted by 8/1/2025.
If approved to be a Wooridge Warrior Manager you will also be a Woodridge Baseball Board Member.
