Traverse City Waves Softball Club

About Us

Brief History

Northern Michigan Waves is an ancestor of the Traverse City Waves, LLC, which is the entity that put on the the amazing Tournaments in Traverse City (see www.traversecitywaves.com for information about those tournaments).  After a short time without representative teams, the TC Waves were resurrected in 2016, fielding a 10U Team that year.  In 2017 The Waves grew to 2 teams, and have been growing since.  In 2022 we have again split from the past, creating a new organization with the mission to build better young women.  The Northern Michigan Waves is a Non Profit organization helping young ladies build confidence and athleticism through softball.  In 2023 we are fielding 5 teams.  1 10U, 1 12U, 2 14U, 1 16U team.

Motto

"Work as a Team, Win as a Team, Better Every Time"

Community Service

Growing our Waves into good citizens is as important as good softball players.   The Waves completed their 1st Annual Community Service Project in the Fall of 2016 with a rehabilitation of the Batting Cages at SEAS, as well as 3 Pitching Bullpens.  The pictures tell the story:

Ripples

Can't have Waves without Ripples first. The Ripples have always been made up of future Waves.   They help at practice and Tournaments, but when not helping, they are expected to work on their softball skills in hopes of becoming future Waves.  The 4 former Ripples are now current Waves.  Also, the Traverse City Waves sponsor a TAGS (Rec. League) D-League Team called the "TC Ripples - Powered by TC Waves" to give back to where most of our players started.
