Event Description

Tournament Information:

Expected Start Times: Games will start Thursday morning at 8:00AM

In 2016, we introduced the Amateur Baseball Championships (ABC), one of the nation’s premier summer events. The ABC has been widely successful since the introduction of the event. Last year, there were over 190 17u teams across multiple divisions, making it one of the top 17u events nationwide. 

This 5-game guarantee will begin Wednesday morning (7/9) and culminate with bracket Sunday (7/13). Teams will start in pools of 4. All teams will play 3 pool play games Wednesday/Thursday before being re-seeded into either a Gold, Silver, or Bronze division, based on pool performance. Teams will each play 2 more games in secondary/pod play on Friday/Saturday. Each gold, silver, and bronze pod winners will advance to a single elimination, winner take all bracket! Bracket Play for ABC Seeds will be determined by Pod Winners of Secondary Pods (Gold, Silver or Bronze).  They will be seeded based on all 5 games. I.E. a 5-0 Team will be seeded higher than a 4-1 team.
