This is great to see. Have you contacted the Memphis area teams? I think that Schilling Farms, White Station, and St. George's all have middle school teams with some degree of organization and I suspect there may be a few others as well (I think ECS was looking to start a team at some point?). I don't have contact info for any of them, but I bet you could call up the schools and find out.

I don't think I have, thank you for the tip. I will most certainly call Schilling Farms, White Station, and St. George's and ask around for the Memphis area teams.
