 Brief History of The Black Widows

The Black Widows Baseball Club was formed in Spring of 2004 as an instructional and developmental travel ball team to better prepare its members for their upcoming 12 year old Little League Season.

The teams are based in the shadows of the Saddleback Valley area of South Orange County in and around the surrounding cities of Rancho Santa Margarita, California. The teams have undergone many changes since then and have expanded into an Organization that currently boasts teams in Three Age Divisions at various Competition levels. BWBBC is a strong supporter of both Little League Baseball and several Youth Travel Ball Organizations that sponsor Travel Ball Tournaments such as USSSA, Super Series, and AAU. The teams also participate in the South Orange County Baseball Association Youth Travel Ball League when it is not participating in tournaments.


Several Former Black Widows Players have successfully gone on to play High School Baseball for Trabuco Hills, Santa Margarita, Mission Viejo, Tesoro, Capo Valley, and will soon be adding San Juan Hills High to that roster of alumni.


 Our Mission Statement

Our Goal as a Youth Baseball Organization is to provide a positive environment for players to reach their full potential as a baseball player and community leader through these key areas:

 

- Baseball Knowledge of “The Game”

- Fundamental Baseball Skills

- Physical Strength Development

- Personal Character

- Team Play

- Winning Attitude

 

We believe positive reinforcement, aggressive practice, repetition, and a good understanding of baseball strategy, provide the proper environment for the team to play the game aggressively, while helping them make split second offensive and defensive decisions needed during a game. While no boy is ever born with innate “Baseball Instincts”, we believe this program will produce players who act instinctively rather than react a step late when the game is on the line. This will translate to their ability to be able to act quickly, correctly and confidently both on and off the field.

 

We appreciate and value every parent and their personal commitment and sacrifice to their player’s baseball life. Parents and coaches are essential to the overall success and positive experience of every player, and this organization. We maintain a high level of accountability within the organization between the parents, coaches, and our players. Club baseball is not recreational, Pony, or Little League baseball. Our coaches are committed to your players overall development and success. Teaching the game and character development are Priority One! Playing time is never guaranteed. While the coaching staff will make every effort to find playing time in game situations for every player, the goal of every game is to attempt to win. The responsibility of the coaching staff is to put the best product, (team) on the field that gives the team the best chance to win. Every member of this organization will demonstrate and hold every one else accountable to the highest standard of respect and positive support for every coach, parent and player within the organization. Negative talk about anyone or any decision cannot be tolerated. There is a proper forum for handling these issues out of the public arena. Every coach has a responsibility to be available for a one on one conversation any time that is most appropriate for all parties involved.

 

We believe in a 24 hour cooling off period before addressing any coach or parent about any uncomfortable issue. Playing time is not a topic of any conversation. Player development is a topic of continuous conversation.

 

Our philosophy is: “Coaches Coach, Parents Support, Kids have Fun and Grow”!

 

The Black Widows have teams in age divisions: 9U 10U, 11U and 13U at this time. We will continue to strive to field a competitive product (teams) in Southern California competing in USSSA, Super Series, USTBA, AAU, and CCYB.

 

We continue to look for ways to improve our organization and appreciate your input and support.
