🚨Click "More Details" 🚨 Rough Rider Youth exists to build young athletes into stronger people.We use baseball and flag football as the vehicle, but the mission is bigger than the scoreboard. Our program serves boys and girls from all income levels, giving kids a place to compete, grow, belong, and be held to a higher standard.Our motto is simple:Respect. Intensity. Progress.Respect means how we treat coaches, teammates, opponents, officials, parents, teachers, and ourselves.Intensity means we show up with effort, focus, and purpose.Progress means we do not quit when something gets hard. We learn, adjust, and keep moving forward.We believe youth sports can be one of the best training grounds for life. A good coach does more than teach a swing, a route, a throw, or a defensive assignment. A good coach helps build confidence, discipline, resilience, self-control, leadership, and accountability.The lessons our athletes learn on the field should follow them into the classroom, into their homes, and into the way they carry themselves every day.Your donation helps provide equipment, uniforms, practice resources, tournament opportunities, facility costs, and support for families who may not otherwise be able to afford the full cost of youth sports.How Donations Will Be UsedYour support will help fund:Player scholarships for two players over two seasons: $1,060Private lessons—two lessons per player, per season: $2,200Team uniforms for two seasons: $660Cleats for 11 players: $440Equipment bags for 11 players: $605Uniform socks for 11 players: $132Field rentals for weekly practices: $456Mevo camera for recording games: $400Indoor facility rentals during bad weather: $380Post-game snacks: $300Baseballs: $300Three team bats: $900Hydration drinks during games: $100Right-handed first baseman’s glove: $75Every donation helps us remove financial barriers, provide safe and reliable equipment, improve player development, and create opportunities for children who may not otherwise be able to afford the full cost of competitive youth sports.Whether your donation helps purchase a pair of socks, provides a private lesson, covers a practice rental, or sponsors a player for an entire season, it makes a meaningful difference.Current Sponsors and Community SupportersRough Rider Youth is grateful for the businesses and community partners already investing in children, character development, and youth sports:Raising Cane’sRound Rock ExpressKalahari Indoor WaterparkState FarmTitan Moon ComicsAustin NinjasKona IceTexas Tooth FairiesAustin AquariumDart’em UpAustin MDFloating Leaf EntertainmentThis is not just about building better athletes.

He genuinely enjoyed the practices, tournament experience, coaching staff, and team environment. From everything we saw, Rough Riders is a great program with great coaches who truly invest in the kids. We have a great deal of respect for the program and are grateful for the opportunity our son had to compete, learn, and grow with the team.”— Rough Riders Parent 1“It brought such joy watching the boys fall in with each other tonight, and play off the field, like they just saw each other yesterday. Such a sweet bond that our son has developed with your little guys, that I haven’t seen anywhere else. He’s not all that interested in the kids at school, but the Rough Riders are his crew.Thank you coaches for the time and soul you have given to this team. It’s been so amazing to watch these boys grow in athleticism, responsibility, and courtesy/respect..-thanks in large to you coaches ❤️You have held each player accountable on and off the field, and we so appreciate it. Without family in Texas, you have helped us with the village effort it takes to raise decent human beings. We are grateful 🙏This team has been instrumental in helping our son gain confidence and learn to develop relationships. I thank all you coaches, and parents, for making this feel more like a family, and also an awesome baseball team to boot. "— Rough Riders Parent 2"Our experience with the Rough Riders has been nothing short of incredible. Every single one of the coaches truly care. They pour into the boys both on and off the field. Character development is a big part of being a rough rider. Perfection is not expected but growth is required, they make sure the boys know that. In turn the boys dig deep and push themselves to new limits. As a parent it is amazing to watch. We have found our baseball home with the Rough Riders and are thrilled to be a part of all things to come.
