What is the Tsunami Program?

In short, club level baseball connected to the recreational league. The Tsunami program allows for a more competitive experience, while staying tied to our community league. 

We are looking for motivated players who exhibit the desire and talent to excel.  We are dedicated to providing youth baseball players with the opportunity to develop their skills and reach their full potential in a competitive baseball environment designed to prepare them for the next level.  

Tryouts are in Fall and Spring.  Please keep checking for dates.

For more information contact Ryan Reich at select@dpyb.org

DPYB SELECT PROGRAM INFORMATION and faqs

DPYB now offers Select Baseball at most age divisions. 

WHAT IS SELECT?

In short, its our league's version of a travel ball program. 

WHAT DOES A SELECT SEASON LOOK LIKE?

Our select teams compete in league play against other select and travel baseball teams from Orange County in both home and away games.  Additional tournament play may also be available.  

SOUND LIKE SOMETHING YOU WANT TO TRY?

We plan to offer select team opportunities for ages 8U-14u, depending on total division registration and interest at each division level.  If there is not enough interest at a given level we will not offer a team in that division.  

If your son or daughter is interested in playing on a DPYB Select team in the Spring or Fall, they must tryout.

WHAT IS THE COMMITMENT?   The commitment is for one Season (Fall or Spring).  For 12U ONLY, the commitment is 12 months, Fall to Fall.  Why?  Because this will be DPYB's COOPERSTOWN TOURNAMENT TEAM, and they will spend a year planning and fundraising to compete in a week-long tournament against some of the best travel teams from across the country.

WHAT ARE THE AGE GROUPS FOR SELECT?  The Age Group for Select is the same a recreational divisions.  Can be found here https://www.dpyb.org/age-key

WHERE DO WE PLAY?  Typically we compete in the Irvine Pony Select League.  Outside and travel tournaments may also be offered at an additional cost.

COST?  Select teams pay the same registration fees as the recreational division.  However, unlike the recreational division, Select players will purchase their upgraded uniforms at an additional cost. It will be up to each individual team/manager with respect to outside tournaments to enter.  This includes possible out-of-state tournaments.

CAN WE PLAY FOR MULTIPLE TEAMS?  As a league, we work hard to protect players from injury.  This includes injury from fatigue.  If your son/daughter is playing for multiple teams, neither team/coach has the ability to effectively track your players' health.   Additionally, managers work hard to develop practice/game plans.  This is a problem when players are playing for multiple teams and have inconsistent attendance or may not be eligible to pitch when his/her manager needs them to pitch.  We won't attempt to parent for you, but we strongly encourage you to limit your child to 1 baseball team at a time.  And no, your son/daughter cannot play both select and rec ball at DPYB - that part we can control.
