Medford Renegades Baseball

09/18/2026

We’re excited to get started tonight.

Our goal this fall is simple: help our players learn, develop, and get as many quality reps as possible in a fun, low-pressure environment.

Please remind your players that these clinics are not tryouts and they are not competitive games. There is no pressure to be perfect.

It’s okay to swing and miss.
It’s okay to make an error.
It’s okay to try something new and get it wrong.

That’s how players learn.

Each Friday, players will rotate through a variety of stations focused on the fundamentals of the game, including hitting, fielding, throwing, pitching, and overall baseball skills. The program is designed to keep the kids moving, maximize repetitions, and help them build confidence along the way.

Each Sunday, we will form teams to play scrimmages. Teams will be formed from all available players within each age division. Players will rotate through different positions each inning, and every player will have an opportunity to pitch. These scrimmages provide valuable real-game experience in a controlled environment where coaches can teach the game without worrying about wins and losses.

Friday, September 18

Time: 5:30 PM
Please arrive approximately 10 minutes early.

Location: Hartford Crossing Baseball Complex

8U: Field 5
9/10U: Field 1
11/12U: Field 3

What to Bring

Players should wear baseball pants and bring all of their normal baseball equipment, including:

* Glove
* Bat (USA only)
* Batting gloves
* Helmet
* Any other position-specific equipment
* Plenty of water

Most importantly, please have them come ready to learn, work hard, and have fun.

Age Eligibility

The Medford Travel Baseball program follows Babe Ruth, Inc. age requirements. Players must attend the scheduled tryout for their age group, which is determined solely by birthdate. Players are not permitted to try out for an older or younger age group.

8U: May 1, 2018 – April 30, 2019
9U: May 1, 2017 – April 30, 2018
10U: May 1, 2016 – April 30, 2017
11U: May 1, 2015 – April 30, 2016
12U: May 1, 2014 – April 30, 2015
13U: May 1, 2013 – April 30, 2014
14U: May 1, 2012 – April 30, 2013

Tryout Format

Each player will be evaluated by at least five coaches representing different age groups, along with at least one member of the Baseball Executive Board.

Players will receive scores in the following skill categories:

* Hitting
* Infield
* Outfield
* Pitching

Category scores will be totaled and averaged to create an overall player evaluation score. This score serves as a starting point for age-level coaches when selecting rosters.

Age-level head coaches will make initial roster selections, which are then presented to the Baseball Executive Board for discussion and final approval by board vote.

We are designing the tryout schedule to accommodate as many players as possible. We understand that unavoidable conflicts can occur; however, the make-up tryout will be reserved for players with special circumstances who are unable to attend their scheduled age-group tryout.

What Does Medford Travel Baseball Entail?

* The travel season typically begins in mid January with indoor training running through mid March.
* Outdoor play typically begins mid March and continues through early to mid-July.
* Travel is primarily local and includes participation in the South Jersey Baseball League (SJBL) as well as at least three weekend tournaments, generally held in neighboring communities.
* All travel players participate in our in-house Renegade League, which typically runs from mid-March through mid-May once per week and is exclusively for Medford travel players.
* Teams will also schedule weekday and weekend practices, scrimmages, and additional games throughout the season.
* The skill level and competition are higher at the travel level. While our teams compete to win in league play and tournaments, the overall emphasis of the Medford Baseball program remains player development, teamwork, and creating a positive baseball experience for our players.

We look forward to seeing everyone at tryouts and to another great season of Medford Renegades Baseball.

Thank you,

Jim Juliano
MYAA Baseball Commissioner

THE MEDFORD RENEGADES MADE THEIR MARK IN COOPERSTOWN.

The 2026 Cooperstown All Star Village trip was supposed to be the experience of a lifetime for our 12U Renegades.

It became that — and more.

Medford entered a field of 94 teams filled with club programs, super-regional teams and nationally ranked organizations.

Our boys represented something different: a group of kids from the same town who grew up playing together on the fields in Medford.

And they proved they belonged.

After going 4–2 in pool play, the Renegades earned the No. 2 seed in the Silver Bracket and then won four straight elimination games to reach the championship game.

They finished the week:

⚾️ 8–3 overall
⚾️ 34th out of 94 teams
⚾️ Silver Bracket Finalists

But Cooperstown was about much more than the record.

It was bunkhouse life, team meals, pin trading, late nights, Cooperstown hills and baseball from morning until night.

It was about becoming a team.

That bond was tested when teammate Billy Kurtz was struck in the face by a 75 mph pitch and could not continue in the tournament.

Once the boys knew Billy would be okay, they rallied around him.

They played for Billy.

Four straight wins later, they had carried their teammate all the way to the championship game - with Billy in the dugout returning from the hospital to be with his team.

We could not be prouder of the way these young men competed, supported one another and represented Medford Renegades Baseball.

Cooperstown also marks the end of an era. Their Cal Ripken years are complete, and the small fields where they learned the game are now behind them.

The big field awaits. And they’re ready.

Congratulations to our 12U players, coaches and families on a week — and a journey — none of us will forget.

Medford made its mark in Cooperstown. GO RENEGADES!

⚾️ COOPERSTOWN BOUND! ⚾️

The Medford Renegades 12U are headed to Cooperstown All Star Village for one final tournament together on the small fields — and it’s hard to imagine a better way to close out this chapter.

For these boys, Cooperstown is more than just another baseball tournament.

It’s a trip they’ve talked about and looked forward to for years. Living together in the player village. Trading pins with teams from all over the country. Playing baseball every day. Visiting the Baseball Hall of Fame. And spending an entire week with their teammates doing what they love.

What makes it even more special is the group they get to experience it with.

These boys have grown up together on the baseball field. They’ve been through winter workouts, long practices, league games, tournaments, big wins, tough losses and a whole lot of moments in between.

Now they get one more week together on the small field.

Before long, the bases will move back. The mound will get farther away. The fences will get deeper. The game will start to look a little different.

But not yet.

They still get one more week as 12-year-olds, playing baseball with some of their best friends.

Years from now, they probably won’t remember every score or every at-bat from Cooperstown.

They’ll remember the bunkhouses.
They’ll remember trading pins.
They’ll remember walking into the stadium together.
They’ll remember the home runs, the laughs and the late nights.
They’ll remember representing Medford.

And hopefully, they’ll remember just how special this team, this trip and this time in their lives really was.

One team.
One unforgettable week.
One final ride on the small fields.

Cooperstown, here come the Medford Renegades!

⚾️🚨HOME-RUN ALERT🚨⚾️

Congrats to Caleb Murphy and Tripp Beebe who both hit home runs at Cal Sr Yard at the Frozen Rope tournament in Aberdeen this week! Way to go, boys!!

⚾️TOURNAMENT HIGHLIGHT⚾️

Special shoutouts to the Medford Renenegades 10U White who placed second at the Sacred Heart Slugfest tournament this weekend. The boys fell just short with an extra inning loss on a close play at the plate. This team has played 4 local tournaments this summer, and has made it to the Championship game in all of them. Now they will finish their season with a trip to Ripken to have some fun to close it all out. Way to work, boys!!

⚾️🚨 HOME RUN ALERT 🚨⚾️

Congratulations to 12U Lucas Addonizio, CJ Lee, and Billy Kurtz, who all launched home runs during this weekend’s PDC Wood Bat Tournament—their first-ever tournament playing with wooden bats.

On Championship Sunday, Billy Kurtz set the tone with a clutch grand slam in the semifinal, giving Medford the lead they never surrendered on the way to the championship game.

Then, in the title game, Lucas Addonizio and CJ Lee each went deep to help put the finishing touches on a tournament championship.

Big swings. Big moments. Championship performance.

Congratulations, boys! 👏🏆💣
