Baseball Youth All American Games

Founded by a former FDR aide, the league was an important part of the effort to get young Americans involved in the war. Its success helped the nation pull through tough times and it gave kids something to aim for—a big-league dream of their own.

Baseball Youth All American Games brings together teams of 9U through High School age divisions for a national championship/world series experience at incredible family vacation destinations with world class synthetic turf facilities. The tournament format is pool & bracket elimination play. Each team is guaranteed a minimum of three games. This is the perfect opportunity to showcase your team for college scouts.

The first step toward making the Major Leagues is getting noticed by scouts. Over 100 inner-city youth from New England checked that box at a free scouting clinic hosted by the Boston Red Sox and facilitated by their Triple-A affiliate, the Worcester Red Sox.

Peyton and Hunter Lowell have spent most of their lives on the baseball field, competing with local travel teams coached by former professional players. Peyton, who pitches and plays shortstop, and Hunter, who bats, catches and throws for the Indiana Elite 12U travel team coached by former professional Trent Howard, took their game to a whole new level in November at the All-American Baseball Youth combine in Indianapolis.

Baseball is the oldest of all major sports, originating from bat-and-ball games that evolved in England during the 18th century before being brought to America, where it became a popular pastime and a symbol of American optimism. Yet it may be the major sport most likely to shrivel in our lifetimes, eclipsed by the rising popularity of other team sports, such as football and basketball, and by video games and a host of social and cultural trends.
