What are Stars teams?
Based in Philadelphia, Mt. Airy Baseball Stars teams provide committed, competitive players with a higher level of baseball instruction and an opportunity to experience a higher level of competition.
Our Stars teams play in 3 to 4 summer tournaments taking place between Memorial weekend and the end of July. (Availability and participation during that period remains the league-mandated requirement for player participation.) Some teams extend their practices and games to additional seasons or nearly year-round. Optional Stars Winter Clinics are offered to rostered players (not included in team registration fee).
