2027 Westside Smash 12U Tryouts
More Than Baseball.
Westside Smash is more than a travel baseball team. We're a family committed to helping young athletes grow both on and off the field.
Our coaches focus on developing strong baseball fundamentals while teaching the values that last long after the final out: teamwork, accountability, confidence, leadership, respect, and a relentless work ethic.
We believe every player deserves an environment where they can compete, improve, and genuinely enjoy the game.
Whether your player is looking to take the next step in competitive baseball or find a program that truly invests in their development, we'd love the opportunity to meet your family.
