Tri-Star Baseball / Softball

The 2023 Optimist Club Tri-Star Baseball Event will take place on Saturday, June 17 at the Menomonee Falls Little League Complex (on Mill Road) from 12:00-4:00. This is a competitive event for 7–12-year-old boys and girls. The event features throwing (for speed), running the bases (for time) and hitting off of a tee (for distance). As always, we need volunteers (6-8) to help with this event. We need volunteers to shag balls, hold the radar gun, time runners and take day-of registrations. If you like baseball and kids, this is for you!

The contest is FREE and is open to all boys, girls and their teams in the Menomonee Falls, Germantown and Sussex areas. The contest is open to all kids ages 7-12.

Registration will begin at 11:30 the morning of the event at the Little League Complex. Families can register the kids up until 3:30 the day of the event. Please contact event chair Don Eisenhauer at 262-409-1846 or at eisenhauers@youngrembrandts.com for more information.
