Our age divisions are split into two groups that take turns at the ball fields every other weekend, so coaches can plan the whole season around the weekends that fit their team. Registration for each event opens on the Tournaments page.

Easter weekend one-day tournament: Saturday, March 27
Easter Sunday falls on March 28, so we are doing something special with that weekend: a single Saturday of baseball for the 8U, 9U, 13U and 14U divisions.
- Four teams per division. Spots are limited, and teams are seeded in the order they register.
- Double elimination. A four-team bracket plays six games, or seven if the team coming through the losing bracket beats the undefeated team and forces a second championship game.
- 90-minute time limit on every game, so that a full bracket fits in the daylight.
- Extra division points. This event gives each team another chance to earn points toward the championship weekend.
Game times and the bracket are posted once registration closes.

Championship points
Teams earn points at each tournament toward the championship weekend on June 26 & 27. The 15U, 16U and 17U–18U divisions are not part of the points system.

If teams are tied on points, the same tiebreakers are used as for seeding after pool play.
