Welcome to the Tri-State Elite Baseball League! Our goal is to provide a competitive baseball experience for all levels of talent, as well as provide an exceptional level and quality experience for each participating team.
2012 LEAGUE KICKOFF MEETINGS
We will host two kickoff meetings for the 2012 season. The meetings are not mandatory, but are recommended for new coaches, teams and programs who are joining or thinking about joining the league. The meeting will cover the proposals and rule changes that were included in December's league update, as well as what will be included in January's update. Further, it is an opportunity for new members to become familiar with the league and ask questions for any concerns they may have.
This year we will have meetings in both Philadelphia and New Jersey to accommodate travel. The meetings and site locations are:
Tuesday, January 24, 7:00 - 9:00 Washington Township Senior Center
(315 Greentree Road, Sewell, NJ 08080)
Thursday, January 26, 6:00 - 8:00 TSE Baseball Academy PA
(2278 North Penn Road, Hatfield, PA 19440 - tseacademypa.com)
