BQ will hold an open testing day for the U14 QLD Rams State Team and the Cal Ripken World Series. The testing day will be held on May 9th at 9:30 to 12:30 at Windsor Royals field, Market Street, Newmarket. This testing day is open to all members interested in making themselves available for selection on either the Australian team to compete at the Cal Ripken World Series, and/or the QLD Rams U14 team.

BQ will hold an open testing day for any players interested in nominating for the U16 and U18 Rams State teams. This testing day will be held at Windsor Royals Baseball Club, Market St. Newmarket on Saturday 16 May 2009 from 9:30 am.

To register your interest, please email Luke Prokopec on [e-mail]

Whilst these testing days are not prerequisites for selection to these teams, the data collected at these testing days is submitted to the coaches of those respective teams for reference in considering players for selection.

Participants will need to bring a water bottle, running shoes/turfs, baseball glove, sunscreen and hat. T-shirt and shorts will suffice.

Any idea when they are going to announce the team? I was under the impression that it would be by the 15th of May.

Which team?

Cal Ripken or the U14 Rams ?

U14 RAMS is far from decided until after the next State Champs games.

Sorry, I should have been more specific, I meant the Cal Ripken team

There is a cal Ripken team page on the ABF site, but still last years roster.

I would think that the families will be notified first before the roster is made public on the website.

I believe the team has been chosen, but it has not been made public yet

Congratulations to QLDers Wez and Bryce on your selection in the Cal Ripken Team

I've seen both these kids play and well and truly deserve a spot in that team, congrats to them both
