TRYOUT NOW FOR 14U FALL TEAM WITH COACH ARON GARCIA
Blue Wave Baseball is now conducting open tryouts for its 14U team with Coach Aron Garcia for the 2023 Fall-Winter season.
Blue Wave 14U is for 8th graders and is coached by Aron Garcia, one of Orange County’s top youth coaches and longtime assistant varsity baseball coach at Northwood High School.
Garcia knows what it takes to develop players and how to get them to the next level in their game to make their high school teams and beyond as hundreds of his players have gone on to top college programs as well as the pros over the years. (See Bio below).
PRACTICE TWICE WEEKLY IN IRVINE
In general, Blue Wave14U conducts fielding practice each Monday at OC Great Park, Irvine, and hits every Thursday at the Northwood High School varsity batting cage.
Blue Wave 14U practice sessions for the year are posted here and priced individually. Blue Wave team players pay $30 per fielding session and $25 per hitting session.
Players only pay practice session fees if they can participate – you never pay for practices if you are not there!
All practice sessions must be paid online at least 24 hours prior to a practice session.
PLAY FALL LEAGUE, SCRIMMAGE GAMES, TOURNAMENTS
Blue Wave 14U will play in the CCYB Fall League starting SEP 10 through NOV 5.
CCYB League games are played on local high school fields each Sunday, either two 7-inning games or a 9-inning game.
League games will conclude with a CCYB-NCS tournament for the playoffs with three games over two weekends. Nov. 11/12 and 18/19th. Two seeding games on the 11/12th, championship rounds on the 18/19th.
After completing Fall League games and playoffs, Blue Wave 14U will play local tournaments and scrimmage games through December and January.
Blue Wave 14U will also play selected scrimmage games along the way, again, mostly on Sundays.

TEAM TRYOUT PROCESS
First off, all new players must REGISTER online to schedule a tryout or attend an open tryout, practice, or game with Blue Wave. There is no cost to register.
Typically, new players will attend both a fielding and hitting practice session at no cost.
Once the player has completed both tryouts, Coach Garcia will either offer the player a roster spot on his team or pass on the player.
Blue Wave also offers “Practice Only” options for players that do not want to play with the teams but want to practice, either fielding or hitting sessions. Practice Only slots are limited.
