Uptown LB 10u ALL STARS 10U Fundraiser

We are currently fundraising for our 10u All Star baseball team that has an opportunity to make a run to the Cal Ripken World Series this summer. The financial burden of all travel and lodging expenses rests entirely on the families of these young players. The simple reality is that no matter how well these players perform on the field have a chance to participate unless funds are raised quickly to help support these expenses. As fledgling league, these players are seeking to make history as the first team from Uptown to accomplish this goal. June 15-16 was the first weekend we played together and the team had an impressive showing at the All Star Extravaganza travel ball tournament featuring the top club, travel and all-star baseball teams in the competitive Southern California area. The 10u squad reached the semifinal round and placed in the top 4 out of 23 teams. June 22-23 Uptown LB captured the District 5 championship capped with a solid 6-1 win over host favorite Los Altos at El Dorado Park. The team advanced to the SoCal State Tournament in Simi Valley on June 29-30. And we won beating out Los Altos 9-2. We were crowned STATE CHAMPIONS! Because of our victory, our team now advances to the Pacific South West Regional in Honolulu, HI (July 15-21) with a chance to advance to a final stop in Phenix, Alabama for the Cal Ripken 10u World Series (August 1-8). All of these destinations require a great expense in terms of travel and accommodations. The travel expenses are enormous and we are graciously and humbly asking for any and all support no matter how great or small. We anticipate the cost to travel to Hawaii alone will run in the 10s of thousands after factoring in all airfare, hotel and food - none of which are compensated in any way by the Cal Ripken/Babe Ruth organization. All the players and families are incredibly appreciative of any and all support that can be spared. This team is dedicated and working hard on the field DAILY to be a success. For many of these players this will be their ONE chance of a lifetime. We do not want see them prove themselves on the field only to forfeit this opportunity due to financial limitations. You will not only be supporting the dreams of these young players, but showing them that all it takes to change the world is the simple kindness of strangers.

About Us

We consist of 11 boys and 1 girl and we are the best of the best at our park. We are raising money to go to Hawaii which is some of our kids dreams. We just got put together less than a month ago and we already killing it out on the field! We played in a tournament with TRAVEL BALL TEAMS (that have been together for years) & other allstar teams and we came out 4 out of 23 and just recently captured our District 5 championship going undefeated in that tournament while posting impressive wins against great teams from Cerritos and Los Altos. After that, we advanced to the Socal State Tournament and beat teams consisting of Simi Valley, Santa Clarita, East Valley and Los Altos. We got the SOCAL STATE CHAMPION CROWN beating out Los Altos 9-2.
