Frequently Asked Questions

Please FAQ's below related to the team and tryouts

Shockers Baseball MoCo is a registered 501c(3) nonprofit and premier travel baseball organization located in Montgomery County, MD.  Our mission is to provide a competitive travel baseball experience for youth baseball players in the County.  We are dedicated to player development, teaching the skills needed for competitive play while emphasizing sportsmanship, teamwork, and a commitment to personal growth.  We strive to build character, foster resiliency, and promote camaraderie among young athletes through the game of baseball.  By encouraging perseverance on and off the field, we foster an environment where each player can reach their full potential, support their teammates, and develop a lasting love for the game.


Advancement

Player advancement is core to what we do.  Continually developing and challenging players is critical to individual and team success. 


Camaraderie

Fostering a positive environment with great teammates, coaches & parents will drive players passion for baseball for years to come. 


Sportsmanship

Shockers players, coaches and parents strive to always respect the game, competitors, teammates and umpires.  We help teach life lessons through the game of baseball. 


Competitive Play

Shockers Baseball MoCo teams push themselves in practice, games and tournaments to compete relentlessly.  Teams have a growth mindset with the goal of getting 1% better everyday. 


In the Spring, players are required to register for play in Montgomery County Little League in order to play on the Shockers.  Fall participation in MCLL is not required.  


Players typically "play up" in MCLL and are often on teams with other players from their Shockers team or other Shockers aged teams, but the full Shockers team is not entered into MCLL as a complete team.  MCLL is one of the most competitive recreational baseball leagues in the MD/VA/DC area and Shockers players continue to be pushed and challenged in those games.  


Additionally, by playing in MCLL, players have the opportunity to compete on the Little League summer tournament all-star teams at the District, State, Regional and World Series level.  MCLL has won numerous District and State Championships in recent years, in large part because of participation from players on the Shockers.


Participation in Little League gives the kids a unique experience in their youth baseball journey by playing both travel and Little League and has been extremely rewarding for those players who played both.


The Spring and Fall cost varies by team, but is generally around $700-$850 per player per season depending on if the team has a paid coach or parent coach and the number of tournaments they participate in.  7u & 8u costs tend to be less.


Initial 'start-up costs' for uniforms, hats, helmet, backpack, etc is $330

The cost is less at 7u, 8u & 9u as players don't purchase all of the items their first year.


Winter workouts are generally $350-$450 per player depending on if the team has a paid coach or parent coach.  7u is $250-$300 because they only practice once per week.



Teams generally start practicing a week or two before school is back in session, with games beginning in late August or early September.  Most teams conclude by the end of October but some will play into the first weekend of November. Teams may play in a league, or arrange their own games.


8u & 9u - 3-4 tournaments in the fall & doubleheaders on non-tournament weekends.

10u & up - 4-6 tournaments in the fall & doubleheaders on non-tournament weekends.


Each team selects their practice location based on the geographical makeup of the team, but generally speaking practice is typically in a central location; Rockville, North Bethesda, Potomac or Derwood.


Indoor winter workouts are at either Training HQ, The Baseball Zone, 80 Scale or a local school gym.


Team participate in winter workouts generally twice per week, one weekday and one day on the weekend.  

7u teams only participate in winter workouts 1 day per week.

Winter workouts generally run from the first week of January to mid-March when the teams transition to an outdoor practice.
