We make joining a Guest Player Connect team easy and stress-free! Follow these simple steps to secure your spot and prepare for an exciting tournament experience.
Step 1: Select Your Division and Position
- Use the age chart to determine the correct division for your player.
- Choose your player’s primary or secondary position from the list of available positions to ensure the best fit for the team.
- Alternatively, select a new position they’d like to try—your player will spend the majority of their time playing this position during the tournament.
- Add the position to your cart—each team has a maximum roster size of 12 players to ensure fair playing time and a well-rounded experience.
Step 2: Proceed to Checkout
- Fill in all required details, including your player’s birthdate and skill level (ranked 1–5).
- Complete your payment to secure their spot.
- We’ll carefully review your player’s information to ensure they’re placed on the right team for their skills and the tournament requirements.
- If any adjustments are needed, such as a different division or position, we’ll notify you and provide options, including a credit for a future tournament if necessary.
Step 3: Get Ready for Game Day
- Once your player’s spot is confirmed, you’ll receive detailed information leading up to the tournament, starting the weekend before the event.
- This includes schedules, coach details, and game-day expectations.
- We’ll make sure you and your player are fully prepared for a fun, stress-free tournament experience.
Understanding the Travel Baseball 2025 Age Chart
The Travel Baseball 2025 Age Chart is your go-to guide for determining the correct division for your player based on their birthdate. Travel baseball divisions are organized by age to ensure fair competition and development opportunities for players of similar ages and skill levels.
How to Use the Age Chart
- Find Your Player’s Birth Month and Year:
- Look for your player’s birth year in the chart.
- Match it with their birth month to locate their age division for the 2025 season.
- Understand the Cutoff Date:
- Travel baseball typically uses a May 1 cutoff date. Players are assigned to divisions based on their age as of April 30, 2025.
- For example, if your player turns 12 before April 30, they will be in the 12U division. If they turn 12 after April 30, they remain in the 11U division.
- Select the Correct Division:
- Use the age division listed on the chart to register your player for the appropriate team or tournament.
