Ayden has been selected to participate in the prestigious New Balance Future Stars Series Underclass Combine in Nashville, TN. He needs your help to make this dream a reality. The players are not charged a fee to participate but instead get the opportunity to raise funds for Future Stars Series Foundation and No Kid Hungry. The players have a chance to earn stipends towards their expenses just by helping raise money for these great causes.
Meet Ayden: Ayden is a 16-year-old player from Branchville, New Jersey. He has played baseball since he began to walk. He got his first catcher's gear when he was 6 and hasn't taken it off since. He enjoys landscaping and fishing with his friends in his free time.
Ayden shares his favorite baseball memory: "My favorite baseball memory is winning the Perfect Game Select Fest Tournament in Florida with my friends. I was really excited to not only pitch in the tournament but also be the catcher in the championship game."
Ayden also shares what attending the NBFSS Underclass Combine means to him: "Attending this event means a lot to me. I have worked extremely hard, and I am thrilled that my hard work is paying off. I love to play against the best of the best and I feel going to this event will challenge me to be better."
The New Balance Future Stars Series is not just about discovering and developing the MLB Heros of tomorrow. It’s about discovering and developing the leaders of tomorrow by creating real opportunities where they don’t exist today: opportunities for education, opportunities to give back to their community… opportunities for a future. We are incredibly grateful that Ayden Ellis is a part of this chapter in our mission to CHANGE THE GAME!
Up to 20% of all net proceeds will be donated to Future Stars Series Foundation and No Kid Hungry.
