ROYBA travel families –an update for our indoor training schedule for the 2026 travel baseball season.
We have decided to push back the beginning of indoor training until the first week of January 2026. The decision was made based on feedback from last year’s indoor training from both parents and coaches. Requests were to start winter training after the holiday break and once team practices begin, have access to more space. In addition to the indoor time at P2P we will have some limited access to the new field house in the month of March & April that teams will be able to use to get ready for their season. Information regarding the field house is still fresh, exact details will likely be shared in early 2026.
More detailed information will be sent out in the weeks prior to indoor training beginning in January of 2026. Nothing is needed from parents at this time, however, if you have any immediate questions, please feel free to contact me via email or phone.
