Good 14U Teams?

[wickedball]

We are moving to N.Cal in the next month to the Stockton area. I have been reading the post and rankings for teams but have seen nothing on the Bandits. We played them in a friendly a few weeks ago in So.Cal. Seemed they had some quality players on the team (hot bats)and looked like good coaching (female staff). They hit a few home runs off of us and had quality defense. We sat and watched them play and were very impressed. Any information? Thank you

New team and org this fall. There are 2 longtime standing org's in Stockton, RR Gold and Grapettes. I'd start there.

(is this where I type that this looks more like an ad for the Bandits than an actual inquiry?)

meh

That's exactly what it looks like. Sure seems to have a lot of info about a team they know nothing about.
I'm curious if your from SoCal and you clearly use heybucket, why would you have to create a new moniker to ask a question?

Bandits went to So Cal and you were impressed

Are you related to the same person moving here looking for the great 01 12u team with the best coaching for college recruiting??? If you guys get a few more players to move north you can form a new team in Nor Cal.

No, not related to anyone. Have always viewed the forum never had anything to say previously. Did check into the team on my own and just wanted to get thoughts about the team from other parents in this area. Thank you for the RR Gold and Grapes info. I have talked with parents that have kids in both programs. Was just looking for some honest info. Now I know why I have never posted inquires on here prior. Good grief.

Who did they hit home runs against?

What Friendly?

Grapes? you already use the common nickname for them up here....

no soup for you

[wickedball]

LOL Didn't know they had a nickname. Just did not want to spell their name incorrect. I hope all parents up in your area are not as welcoming as you.

One day...we all will be able to say what we need with good intention. If you want to play with the Bandits I believe they are based out of Elk Grove. It's about 25 minutes north of Stockton. They don't play any of the better teams in NorCal so they are at best an unknown startup.

Were you playing on a B team in SoCal? Who were you playing for there and what tournament was it?

Wicked.....Not everyone in NOR CAL is like this...great area for softball.....Best of luck!!!!
