Two years ago, we set out to build something different.
We wanted to create a travel baseball program that provided more than just baseball and player development. We wanted to build an organization centered around culture, community, and unforgettable experiences. A place where young athletes could develop as players and as people, where families could build lasting friendships, and where giving back to our community was just as important as competing on the field.
The last two years have flown by, and we’re incredibly proud of what we’ve built together.
What started as a single team with a simple motto has grown into three teams this spring: 9U, 10U, and 11U. This fall, we’re adding an 8U team to the organization, and because of the tremendous interest we’re receiving from families who believe in our mission, we’re also exploring the addition of a rising 9U team and a second rising 10U team.
While the growth has been exciting, what makes us most proud isn’t the number of teams. It’s the culture we’ve built and the people who have helped make it possible. Every player, parent, coach, sponsor, volunteer, and supporter has played a role in shaping Oak City Aviators into what it is today.
Thank you to all of the families who have trusted us, supported us, volunteered alongside us, and believed in what we’re building. We couldn’t have done it without you.
Cheers to two years! ✈️⚾️💙

This Friday, our Oak City Aviators 10U team will have the honor of partnering with the USO at RDU to welcome incoming service members headed to trainings throughout the Carolinas. 🇺🇸
Our players and families will be helping greet soldiers as they arrive, providing snacks and comfort items, helping direct them through the airport, and actively engaging with the men and women serving our country.
It’s an incredible opportunity for our players to be part of something bigger than baseball and to give back in a meaningful way.
We are also conducting a supply drive to help restock and add items to the USO lounge for traveling service members and military families.
We’ve already received and collected several generous donations and truly appreciate the support so far, but we would still love a few additional donations before Thursday!
Items can be ordered directly through our Amazon wishlist below or given directly to any 10U Aviator player or family.
The USO and the Oak City Aviators sincerely thank you for helping us support those who serve. ❤️💙

Happy Birthday to one of the OGs of our 9U squad , TREY! 🎉⚾️
Trey has been a big part of this team from the start and continues to lead by example every time he steps on the field. Whether he’s hitting bombs, pitching, catching, or making plays in the field, he’s always competing hard and being a great teammate.
Hope your day is as big as your bat, Trey! 💣🔥

The Oak City Aviators are growing, and we are excited to announce upcoming opportunities for players and families to join our organization!
We are hosting tryouts and open practices for our established teams, building new teams, and gauging interest for possible additional teams based on the incredible response we’ve received from families across southern Wake County, Harnett County, and surrounding areas.
The Aviators were built on a love of the game and a desire to create a travel baseball experience that goes beyond the field. Our mission is to develop competitive baseball players while building confident young men, strong teammates, and families who are part of something bigger. We believe in hard work, accountability, community, and creating an environment where players are challenged, supported, and proud to wear the Aviators name.
Whether your player is ready to compete at the next level, looking for a fresh opportunity, or your family is interested in being part of a growing organization with a clear vision, we’d love to hear from you.
