Watertown Storm Program Overview

The Watertown Storm Baseball Program is a SELECT / TRAVEL program and is available to a limited number of players from ages 8 to 19.  This is a competitive program that requires substantial commitment on the part of players and their parents; Playing time is not guaranteed! 

 

 

  • The goal of the STORM program is to develop players to play at the highest level possible and to ensure a positive and fun environment for your athlete to develop.
  • Players must reside in Watertown or attend a school in Watertown. If you do not meet these criteria, you may contact the WYBA President to determine eligibility 
  • Player Evaluations take place in late summer.  Teams are selected and player notifications are mailed within several weeks of the tryout (players selected to a team are required to submit a non-refundable deposit to reserve a roster spot)
  • One or Two Teams per age group depending on the numbers AND evaluations
  • (U8, U9, U10, U11, U12, U13, U14, U16, U17 and U19)
  • Camps and Clinics are made available in November / December as part of the Storm Program FREE of charge.
  • Indoor workouts begin in January/February when we start to build the foundation for a successful season. Players are expected to make the majority of their team's indoor workouts.
  • Teams play 1-3 league games per week vs. teams throughout southeastern Wisconsin from mid-April through the end of July. (50% of the games involve travel to other communities). Teams also play 3-4 weekend tournaments.  Teams play from 25 to 35 games in a season.
  • Travel to other communities is required
  • Time commitment is typically one time a week in January and February twice a week in March and April and 3 times a week, or more, in May, June and July.
  • Parents and players participate and volunteer for the Storm Armageddon Tournament which takes place in June or July depending on Age Group. This is the program's significant fundraising event -- Parents may choose from various responsibilities throughout the weekend. Participation is mandatory for parents. 
  • Costs are determined each year, but generally are around $250 plus a $150 volunteer deposit.
