The Bayside Yankees is a traveling baseball team based out of the New York City area that comprises five teams consisting of players ranging in age from 12 to 18 years old.  With a tradition rich of winning championships and producing top baseball talents, Bayside has built the reputation as one of the best amateur baseball organizations in the country and history of travel baseball. Thus, they have adopted for themselves the nickname, "Aaaaaaamerica's Team".

Founder and head coach of the Senior Yankees, Marc Cuseta, has gained notoriety among all of baseball coaches by leading Bayside through numerous national championships and producing top level talents who extend to play college and professional baseball.  He and his coaches recruit and accept top talent players from across the country who show a love for the game, setting their season to compete in prestigious national tournaments against the elite teams in the nation.  Their goals are not only to win, but to further develop the players and allow them to gain as much exposure possible to college coaches, scouts and Major League Baseball.  Many college programs and professional organizations, have frequently called upon Cuseta to send his highly talented players to their college and organization. In its history, Bayside Yankee players have earned scholarships to universities such as the University of Miami, Clemson University, Vanderbilt University, St. John's University, Duke University, Wake Forest University, University of North Carolina, University of Arizona, Georgia Tech, University of Notre Dame, Oklahoma State, Florida State, Virginia Tech, University of Pittsburgh, Tulane University, University of Kentucky, and top junior colleges.  Dozens of Bayside Yankee players have moved onto professional baseball careers.

After finishing the 2012 summer season and going 1–2 in the Connie Mack World Series, Cuseta has 1,999 wins in amateur baseball. 2,000 should come relatively soon as the BY's start their 2012 fall season.
