Overview

Challenge Baseball is our advanced program for players seeking stronger competition and a greater time commitment.

We field teams for ages 7U through 15U, giving players opportunities to develop and compete at every stage of youth baseball. Teams train at a faster pace, face higher-level opponents, and compete primarily on weekends. Schedules may include two-day tournaments (e.g., Top Gun, Perfect Game) as well as single-day tournaments (e.g., HQ4, QCBL), in addition to scrimmages.

Participation requires consistent practice attendance, weekend availability, some regional travel, and additional costs for tournament fees. The program emphasizes skill development, baseball IQ, coachability, and sportsmanship while preparing players for the next level of play.

Eligibility

A player’s age for Challenge Baseball is determined by their age on April 30th of the upcoming spring season; for fall teams, eligibility is based on the age they will be on April 30th of the following year.

Team Selection

Tryouts for each age group are held in the fall and spring. Player selection for Challenge teams considers multiple factors. Tryout performance is one input alongside prior challenge and rec seasons, demonstrated skills and playable positions, attitude, coachability, and baseball IQ.

If an age group has sufficient players and coaching, a second Challenge team may be formed.
