Whether your child’s team isn’t attending, disbanded, or they didn’t make the roster—GPC is your ticket in.
We handle everything:

Guest Player Connect makes it easy for players to join a team and live the Cooperstown dream—even if their current team isn’t going. Here’s how it works:
1. Sign Up & Secure Your Spot
Choose your player’s week and position, and submit your deposit to lock it in. This officially saves their place on the roster.
✅ No tryouts. No cuts. If we can form a full team, you’re in.
2. Complete the Player Assessment
Right after sign-up, you’ll get a quick player self-assessment form. This helps us build balanced teams and make sure every player has a great experience.
3. Get Ready for Cooperstown!
Once your team is filled, we’ll send your confirmation and all the details: coaches, rosters, and everything you need to start preparing for this unforgettable week.
💡 Includes tournament entry, lodging, meals, uniforms, trading pins, team gear, coaching, insurance, and more — see the “What’s Included” section on this page for a full breakdown.
A non-refundable $300 deposit is due at registration to hold your spot.
The remaining balance of $1,999 is split into 6 equal monthly payments of $333, starting the 1st of the month after your initial deposit. Payments are automatically charged to your credit card. There will not be a charge January 1. The price also does not include tax.
| Payment | Amount |
|---|---|
| Month 1 | $333 |
| Month 2 | $333 |
| Month 3 | $333 |
| Month 4 | $333 |
| Month 5 | $333 |
| Month 6 | $334 |
🗓 All payments must be completed before your player travels to Cooperstown.
If you register later in the season, your remaining balance will be evenly divided across the months left before the trip.
At Guest Player Connect, we know Cooperstown is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Because of the significant costs and advance commitments required, it’s important to be clear about our refund and commitment policy.
If GPC is unable to form a complete team to attend Cooperstown, families will receive a full refund of all money paid, including the deposit. You can register with confidence knowing your investment is protected in this rare situation.
Registering your player is a commitment to their teammates, coaches, and the program. Every roster spot matters, and once a team is formed, expenses are locked in.
A $275 non-refundable deposit is required at registration.
Once the team is confirmed, all payments (deposit + installments) are non-refundable.
Credit cards on file may be automatically charged for scheduled installment payments.
Because GPC must submit payments to Cooperstown All Star Village months in advance—including fees for tournament entry, uniforms, coaching, lodging, and meals—all payments become non-refundable once a team is officially formed.
No refunds will be issued for cancellations, injuries, scheduling conflicts, or personal reasons after confirmation.
The only exception: if GPC cannot field a team, families will receive a full refund of all money paid.
We strongly recommend families purchase travel insurance to protect against unexpected circumstances such as illness, injury, or schedule changes.

We create a GameChanger group for each team well in advance. It’s used for updates, scheduling, livestreaming, and group communication. Families can also coordinate rides, hotels, and even fundraising through this private space.
$200 deposit due upon registration and acceptance
Equal monthly payments begin the following month
Final payment due by March 15, 2026

Each tournament week runs Sunday through Saturday. Your player will check in with the team on Sunday and depart the following Saturday. GPC will share a full itinerary, check-in details, and what-to-bring guide well before your scheduled week.
The Travel Baseball 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.
In the Fall of each year, players should sign up as their Spring age for the following year. (Example: 2025 Spring age = 12U, 2025 Fall age = rising 13U)
