We are very proud of our Juniors and Seniors All-Star teams – both were 2018 Northern California champions. The Seniors finished in 3rd place in the Western Region and the Juniors were in 4th place in the Western Region. What a great run for the coaches and players on these teams. Our teams are proud to represent Oakland, District 4 and Northern California.
Special thanks to our dedicated managers, Steve Paltiel (Seniors) and Johnny Seal (Juniors) and all of their support staff – it takes a dedicated team of volunteers and parents to make this happen!
