How many tickets are available?

Legit asking because I don't know. My kids didn't do organized sports like this and its vastly different from when I was a kid.

Is this raffle just for the one kid, or the whole team? Or, is if for the entire league? That just seems like A LOT of hardware/guns/hunts/vehicles for one kid.

Little league has jumped the shark.

Need more information about the league, number of tickets, etc.

Also a post from the OP who is not using a rookie tag.

Twelve is a Select Baseball organization. It's not a league. They have team locations mostly around CS, Houston, Woodlands, Katy, Lufkin etc.

I assume this is a fundraiser for the entire Twelve select baseball organization.

No idea on amount of tickets.

I also raised an eyebrow about this. All posts from the OP have been about this raffle. Not exactly a known poster on the OB.

I can't speak for the OP, but Brauny with TexAgs also coaches for 12 baseball. Maybe we can ask him to come over and give the raffle some legitimacy.

ETA: I PM'd Brauny and if he comes over and gives his thumbs up I am sure it will help.

One of our Captain's and BC's have kids in the Twelve organization and they send out the link to buy tickets in this raffle every year. I've bought one ticket each year for the past two years. First year, I won an FN509c, second year I didn't win anything. My dad bought a ticket this past year and won a trophy red stag hunt (valued at $10k) at UnoMas ranch. My buddy's dad also bought a ticket this past year and won a Gen 5 G17.

I don't have a kid in the program but I can vouch that the raffle is legit. Last year I couldn't find the number of tickets sold but I believe it's at least few thousand.

Good friend is the CFO for 12 and he confirmed the raffle, so another vote for legitimacy.

When are the winners announced?

Let me find out how many tickets.

The ticket sales are organization wide and not capped. 50% of each ticket a player sells goes to their individual Texas 12 account to help pay for his tournament fees. The other 50% go to the Texas 12 Program as a whole. This is my sons third year with Texas 12 and I am an assistant coach with his team. All of the prizes are legit. My wife and I are class of 08' and 09'

Winners will be announced in December 8th on The Texas Twelve Facebook Page Live. Winners will also be contacted via email address.

There's no raffle rules, info on dates, etc. Not questioning it's legitimacy, but the lack of info is odd. I thought there were disclosures required by law for running raffles, etc.

Done

It's legit, my son plays for Twelve in CS, and we'll be pimping raffle tix to family and friends soon enough. Ticket sales benefit the players to offset yearly registration and tourney fees, as well as the Twelve org to pay for coaches, facilities, etc,. And great idea OP posting to the OB!

I purchased a ticket as well, but have not received any email confirmation.

I am not a regular poster. as his mom Im not actively into hunting activities. However I am an Aggie grad and was recommended by a friend to use this platform for help with support.

I am collecting as much information from the organization as quickly ad possible and will update when I get it.

Thanks everyone for their support!

I will double check on this now!

Welcome to your newest addiction. Once you bite the poison apple that is TexAgs you don't go back.

I'm also class of 09, I found out about texags from a family friend in about '03…the rest is history.

not sure about this year but last year it looks like they drew winners in December. Also last year's fine print on a raffle flyer google brought up said that the ticket sales were limited to 10,000 which would give you about a 2% of chance of winning something per ticket if they sell that many.

Texas Twelve Organization History:

Over the past 20 years, there has been a shift in the landscape of youth baseball. Hyper competitive environments and win-at-all-costs mentalities have replaced efforts to foster skill, leadership, character, and preparation for life after the game. Founded as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in 2006, Twelve works against the grain to focus more on the development of young men and women as future leaders. We believe that, by doing things the right way, our players gain the necessary skills and character attributes to succeed in the futureboth on and off the field. In just a short span of time, we have gained state and national recognition not only for successes and accolades on the field, but also for the manner in which our Texas Twelve program operates

The number of tickets sold is not capped.

This raffle supports the Texas Twelve organization as a whole.

Email response from Twelve:

"There isn't a confirmation email per say like last year.

That to say, on the public link one is using to purchase, they can always go back an enter their email address and it keeps a log of purchase and ticket numbers."

Please let me know if this is helpful!

Ok. I'll give the OP the benefit of the doubt, but there is a test and there are right and wrong answers:

1. Smoking a Brisket: Fat side up or fat side down? Explain your answer.

2. Say you are dove hunting and you kill a racing pigeon. What are the next 3 things that you do?

3. How would you handle an automobile that has been left in air port parking for an extended period of time?

Bonus: You are in charge of a deer lease in South Texas and decide to advertise available spots here on the OB.
Site 3 rules for your lease.
