The Wasco All Star program has long been one of the most fun aspects of Wasco Baseball. Past players of the Wasco All Star program have great memories of playing on their respective teams and representing Wasco Baseball in tournaments all over the area.
The Wasco All Star Program offers more baseball to the players that are looking to supplement their in house experience and are not looking for full time travel. To be eligible to tryout and make an All Star team, a player must be registered in the Wasco Spring In House league. All Star teams practice and play on Fridays and Sundays and do not interfere with in house. Wasco Baseball has fielded very competitive teams in year’s past and we will continue that tradition in 2024.
Below are the key points of how the 2024 Wasco All Stars Program will operate:
Teams: 8u Kid Pitch, 8u Coach Pitch, 9u, 10u, 11u, 12u and 13u/14u combined
Coaches:
8u Kid Pitch: Ryan Bonnamy
8u Coach Pitch: OPEN
9u: Kyle Zimmerman
10u: Chris Andel
11u Bret Dupuis
12u William Alhofen
13u/14u: Michael Russelle
The proper team for your player is determined by their age, as of 4/30/24.
Games: In addition to your player’s In-House schedule, you can expect your player to play 6 games in the N60 league and 3 tournaments with a total expected number of games between 30 and 35. 8u Coach pitch will not play the N60 games, and instead will play 2-3 tournaments in addition to their In-House schedule.
Tryouts will be Saturday February 24th or Sunday February 25th depending on the team.

For the 8u Kid Pitch team particularly, this is a great opportunity to experience what Travel Baseball is like, without having to make the commitment of a Full-Time Travel player.
All Players selected for the Wasco ALL Stars are required to play in a Wasco Baseball Spring In-House league.
Please refer to the table to determine the appropriate age level for your player.
No, our All Star program does not allow Play Ups at any level. This includes 7 year-olds who do not fall within the 8u birthday/grade range. Because 7 year olds who are not in the age window and grade will not be considered for the 8u teams, we will not allow them to try out. However, we encourage them to come back out next year!
