What the youth baseball Nationals are all about
The youth baseball Nationals is a single elimination tournament for 14U thru 18U teams that culminates with a Championship game at Louisville Slugger Field the home of the Louisville Bats
The Youth Baseball Nationals was founded in 2013 with the goal of providing a national platform for the best youth baseball teams across the country to compete against each other.
Since its inception, the Youth Baseball Nationals has grown rapidly, attracting some of the best teams from across the country. In 2017, there were over 400 teams from 42 states and Puerto Rico that competed in the Youth Baseball Nationals.

How teams can qualify for the Youth Baseball Nationals
The youth baseball National Championship is a tournament that is open to any youth baseball team in the United States
To be eligible to participate in the tournament, teams must first qualify through one of three different routes. The first option is to win a regional tournament held throughout the country. The second way to qualify is by receiving an At-Large bid, which is given to a select number of teams that did not win their Regional tournament but still put together a strong season. Finally, teams can also earn a berth in the National Championship through the Wild Card system, which gives teams that did not win their Regional tournament another chance to earn a spot in the field.
Once the field for the National Championship has been determined, the teams will be placed into one of four different divisions based on their records and regional rankings. From there, they will compete in a double-elimination style tournament until there is only one team remaining, who will be crowned the youth baseball National Champion.
