FLOWER MOUND, TEX.— Flower Mound Youth Sports Association (FMYSA) announced on Friday that Flower Mound Tex. has been selected as the host location for the 12U USA Baseball National Team.
The 12U National Team Trials will be held at Bakersfield Park on November 8-11. The trials will showcase the best youth baseball players from across the United States as they vie for a spot on the coveted National Team. On November 13, the final roster for the team will compete in exhibition matches until the 15th. Bakersfield Park opened 17 years ago during the month of September in 2004, and has long been a staple in the Flower Mound community.
Tracy Black, general manager of FMYSA says that “FMYSA is pleased to host this prestigious event and is working hand in hand with the Town of Flower Mound to ensure all USA Baseball staff, athletes and families have the best experience possible. We are actively working with the town departments too; from the Mayor Derek France to the Chamber of Commerce, to the Parks and Recreation Department on the planning process to ensure USA Baseball feels welcome, and has the best possible experience for the athletes, their families, and the USA Baseball Staff during their stay in Flower Mound.”
“We would also like to thank Will Schworer, Director for the 12U National Team Program, for his time, energy and professionalism during the selection process, and of course for ultimately choosing FMYSA, Flower Mound, and Bakersfield Park as the host location for the 12U National Team,” Black added.
FMYSA acts as the town of Flower Mound’s youth baseball and softball facilitator. They also provide programs to thousands of children in the county through their little leagues as well as their competitive select ball teams.
