June 2007: The Trombly Baseball program has been very successful the last 2 years at the Connie Mack level. Last year we had 2 teams, Braves and Bulldogs, and they both won their respective leagues. The Braves went to the Connie Mack World Series and were the Runner-Up for the 2nd Consecutive Year. That is pretty good when you consider there are 1,500 teams around the country that play Connie Mack and for the Braves to get 2nd Place 2 years in a row is outstanding. The majority of players from these 2 teams have moved on to college.
Our 16U Cubs team from last year was a very strong group. They went 20-2 and were the Runner-Up at the 16U Mickey Mantle World Series. Their only 2 losses came at the World Series to the eventual winner. Again, there are 1,500 teams in the country that play 16U Mickey Mantle and we were the 2nd Place team.
For our program to be the Runner-Up in both the 16U Mickey Mantle and 18U Connie Mack divisions of AABC in the same summer was UNBELIEVABLE!
We have the majority of players back from last years Cubs team who are all 17U. In addition every player that we added to our program was 17U as well. Due to numerous factors it was decided that we are going to register our 2007 Trombly Braves team as a 17U team. We will play in an 18U Connie Mack League this summer and then will go to the 17U Playoffs and hopefully eventually to the 17U Don Mattingly World Series. The American Amateur Baseball Congress (AABC) started the 17U Connie Mack World Series last year and it was named the Don Mattingly World Series.
The Trombly Baseball organization will only be doing (1) team this summer. That team will be the 17U Trombly Braves. We did have a small amount of very talented 18U players in our program and we helped get these guys on other 18U teams. I knew that we could have organized an 18U team and had these guys play on it, but I felt that the team would be good, not great. I wanted what was best for the players so I helped them find other teams that would give them a chance to be on a GREAT team. I wanted them to have the opportunity to compete and have a chance to get to Farmington, NM for the 18U Connie Mack World Series. I believe that the guys are on teams that will give them this chance. In time, I will post what teams these guys will be playing on.
I am very excited about our 17U Trombly Braves group. I feel that we have put together THE BEST 17U TEAM IN THE COUNTRY. I know that we are going to have an exciting run at the 17U World Series this summer and then come next year will have everyone back and will compete for the 18U World Series. We have a great group of players and just as important they are a group group of guys as well. It will be an exciting 2 year run and I am excited to start playing.

NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!!!!
Trombly Baseball won their 1st National Championship by winning the Super 7 World Series. There were 13 of the top 16U teams from around the country assembled in what was a very tough and talented field. The Bulldogs brought home the Championship with an overall record of 8-1 and outscored their opponents 81-30. The Championship Game was broadcast on local cable TV in Georgia and was an all Southern California final as the Trombly Bulldogs defeated the So Cal Bombers 10-8. Congratulations to both teams for representing So Cal baseball well!
