HOW TO ADVANCE

Each youngster MUST first participate at a local
competition. The 1st Place All-Around, Pitching, Hitting
and Running Champions in each age group advance to
the Sectional competition.

At the Sectional competition, the youngster must be a
1st Place All-Around Champion in his/her age group in
order to qualify to advance to the Team Championship.
The Sectional All-Around Champions' scores are
compared with the other Sectional Champions' scores in
that respective MLB® team market. The Top 3 participants
in each age and gender group advance to the Team
Championship. The Sectional Champion does NOT
automatically advance to the Team Championship.

After the Team Championships, the All-Around Champions
in each age and gender group are ranked nationally by total
score. The champions' scores from all 30 team markets are
compared and the top scorers in each age group and gender
nationwide advance to the National Finals in Anaheim, California.
