2007 USA Junior Olympic Baseball Championships
Participant Application Information
The USA Junior Olympic Baseball Championship is an open national tournament for teams with players ages 16-under. The program is designed to provide Olympic athlete development opportunities to youth baseball players across the country. The tournaments will be held in Peoria & Surprise, Ariz., and Palm Beach County, Fla., from June 22-30, 2007. USA Baseball will award 144 teams (72 in each site) the right to participate based on an application approval basis: the timely submission of completed application information and the receipt of appropriate fees are essential to complete the registration process.
To be considered for the tournament, completed on-line applications and deposits ($500) must be received by USA Baseball by one of the following application deadlines: January 17, February 14, or March 7. The sooner your team applies, the better its overall chances of acceptance. Teams will either be accepted or wait-listed in the days following each of those dates. If your team is wait-listed, it will be reconsidered after the next application deadline.
Once accepted, teams must submit the remaining team fee ($1,000 if local or $1,200 for all others), a roster with a maximum of 20 players (minimum of 15 with at least 8 players born on or after January 1, 1991), and a maximum of 5 coaches or adult personnel to USA Baseball no later than May 9.
