Also try all star baseball program they have several locations in the area u described
I have 2 sons ages 14 and 16 in SE PA playing travel ball. If you want to talk send me a PM.
Son played for the Diamondjacks for the last two summers, 16u and 17u...this is the Diamond Nation team and as they host all the larger tourneys in the NE I feel am familiar with the teams that have the best reps and provide the best exposure the colleges...in no order....
Diamond Jacks
Tri-State Arsenal
Gallagher Baseball
NJ 9ers
Baseball U
USA Elite
There are a ton of teams in the area besides those I listed and as a previous poster mentioned most have multiple teams at each age...imo you want your son to be on the top team at whatever organization you choose as the top team normally gets the best exposure
In addition to those already mentioned, most of the teams below have websites and have a list of where their former players have committed (or been drafted). Those college commitments should give you some idea of their level of play, and the schools they work with. Note, in a few cases a team will list a player who was really only been a guest player.
Philly Bandits
Keystone State Bombers (fka B2B)
Elite Baseball (Lancaster)
USA Elite Baseball
Lehigh Valley Baseball Club
Bluerocks Baseball
Arena Starz (Northeastern MD)
MidAtlantic Red Sox (Northeastern MD)
Sorry, I don't know.
Anybody know anything about the Mid Atlantic Rookies? A friend of ours son plays for them.
The reason for asking these questions is that my son quit his local travel team and wants to find a more elite one. Thank you for all the feedback

I think the Rookies might be connected with Keystone State now. I would suggest that you start by talking with their program director.
Thanks for the info are they still a separate team or did the players move there?

As far as I know, they are still a separate team.
Can you tell me of any tournaments that they do? And what are the costs?

The OP said he was looking for 14-16 the Philly Bandits do not or at least did not have teams that young but I can speak from experience about the Philly Bandits College showsase age teams....excellent team, with a great reputation among college coaches. My POV the best in the Philly area.

The Bandits start at age 16. they partnered with SEPA Knights for the younger ages.
Thanks, I think the 16U team is relatively new for them, but they do list one on their web site. I cannot speak from direct experience, but I have only heard good things about the program.

I agree with this advise almost all of the time, but since the EvoShield Canes have been mentioned (in one of the many threads on this topic), I would add that they are a notable exception. All of their teams seem to get plenty of exposure and help kids find college opportunities.
