Middle School - Junior Varsity

General Information

The Thunder Middle School Program will be fielding Varsity and JV teams for the 2022 Spring season. Practices will be held at the Memorial Ashford Little League complex, 12900 Westmere Drive, Houston TX 77077.

The Middle School Varsity Program provides young men 12-14 years old the opportunity to compete against homeschool, private and public school teams from around the Houston area. Players must try out and earn a roster spot. Playing time is not guaranteed nor necessarily equal between all players. The coaching staff configures the rosters and lineups to provide the team the best opportunity for success. Having said that, the Varsity Program is not "win at all costs" and will strive to improve the ability and skills of each player. The Varsity team will play approximately 12-15 games, possibly including one out of town tournament.

The Middle School JV Program provides young men 11-13 years old the opportunity to compete against homeschool, private, public school and league teams from around the Houston area. Players must try out and earn a roster spot. Playing time is not necessarily equal between all players, but all players will play in each game. The coaching staff strives to improve the ability and skills of each player. The JV team will play approximately 12-15 games in the Spring.
