Castle Spring Tryout 2025 Flier
Castle Athletics has announced its tryout schedule for its Boys and Girls teams’ Spring and Summer travel seasons. Previously, it posted the teams’ respective schedules, with teams, 12U-17U playing on the Puma NXT and Pro16 Circuits. Last year, the Boys 13U and 14U teams won the Puma NXT and Zero Gravity National Championships and the Girls 14U team won the National Championship on the USJN Circuit. Brian Rosen, Castle President, said that “this year’s schedules are the most comprehensive and competitive of any schedule for a NYC program and present the greatest opportunity for a player’s development and improvement by playing at the highest level of competition.”
