The Teamwork Sports Baseball Club was formed in 2011 and participates under the brand names of the Brookside Storm and the Waldo Thunder.
Our goal is to field youth baseball teams with players predominately from South Kansas City communities and provide a competitive alternative to recreational baseball without single sport dedication, excessive fees, or suburban facilities. Fielding teams representing multiple schools is an important aspect of our club. Our 2021-22 rosters included players from more than a dozen area schools in Kansas and Missouri.
Although sharing the core values of teaching fundamentals of the game with focus on teamwork and sportsmanship while preparing players for on and off field success, our volunteer head coaches will operate each team independently including final roster decisions, specific practice routines, and game day philosophies.
Teams will play league games at Blue Valley, The J, JoCo 3&2, KCMO 3&2, Lee's Summit, or NKCA.

The Teamwork Sports Baseball Clubs operates under a model supportive of participation in multiple sports through the year. We ask players participating in multiple sports to consider baseball a top priority during the Spring/Summer Season, a close second priority during the Fall Season, and prioritized appropriately during the Winter Workout Period. We encourage teams to hold approximately 1-2 workouts/events per week through the Fall Season, approximately 1-2 workouts/events per week through the Winter Workout Period, and approximately 2-3 workouts/events per week through the Spring/Summer Season. Each Head Coach will set their own specific team workout schedule.
