We make joining a Guest Player Connect team easy and stress-free! Follow these simple steps to secure your spot and prepare for an exciting tournament experience.
Step 1: Select Your Division and Position
Use the age chart to determine the correct division for your player.
Choose your player’s primary or secondary position from the list of available positions to ensure the best fit for the team.
Alternatively, select a new position they’d like to try—your player will spend the majority of their time playing this position during the tournament.
Add the position to your cart—each team has a maximum roster size of 12 players to ensure fair playing time and a well-rounded experience.
Step 2: Proceed to Checkout
Fill in all required details, including your player’s birthdate and skill level (ranked 1–5).
Complete your payment to secure their spot.
We’ll carefully review your player’s information to ensure they’re placed on the right team for their skills and the tournament requirements.
If any adjustments are needed, such as a different division or position, we’ll notify you and provide options, including a credit for a future tournament if necessary.
Step 3: Get Ready for Game Day
Once your player’s spot is confirmed, you’ll receive detailed information leading up to the tournament, starting the weekend before the event.
This includes schedules, coach details, and game-day expectations.
We’ll make sure you and your player are fully prepared for a fun, stress-free tournament experience.
Simply browse our list of upcoming tournaments, choose the event that fits your schedule, and sign up. You’ll select your child’s position(s) and the appropriate skill level during registration. View our list of tournaments here.
Level 5 (Elite): Excels in all areas, high-level performance. It’s important to be honest about their abilities to ensure they are placed in the right environment for growth and enjoyment.
Yes! If your child and their friends sign up for the same tournament and are of similar skill levels, they will be placed on the same team to enjoy the experience together.
Yes, if you have a full team, you can sign them all up to participate in the tournament together. Additionally, there is a 15% discount if you register a full team.
Once you sign your player up, you’ll receive a confirmation email with the next steps. As the tournament date approaches, we’ll send you all the important details, including the game schedule, coach contact information, and when and where to pick up uniforms.
Schedules are typically provided 3-5 days before the tournament, depending on when the host releases them. Rest assured, we’ll keep you informed every step of the way to ensure a smooth and exciting tournament experience! More on How It Works.
Your child will meet their coach and new teammates, receive a Guest Player Connect hat and jersey, warm up, and play in competitive games. Every player gets equal playing time, and standout performers are recognized with MVP awards at the end of the tournament.
We review the skill levels provided during registration to place players on appropriate teams. This ensures balanced competition and minimizes the risk of injury. Our impartial coaches also play a crucial role in maintaining a positive, supportive, and fair environment.
Absolutely! Guest Player Connect is designed for players of all skill levels, including those who may not be on competitive teams. Our goal is to provide every child with the opportunity to play, grow, and have fun.
We form teams based on the age divisions set by the tournament host. For indoor tournaments, some facilities may not allow 12U players due to the size of the facility, fields, and players. If you don’t see a 12U team listed, it’s likely because the tournament doesn’t offer that division or due to these facility restrictions.
Indoor winter tournaments typically don’t offer divisions beyond 12U because the players are too big to hit baseballs safely inside, and the fields are too small to accommodate them. Additionally, we focus on tournaments where there is the most interest and where we can form competitive teams. If a 13U or higher division is missing, it’s likely due to these factors or the tournament’s specific age restrictions.
We are currently gauging interest in forming teams for the 15U+ age groups. It can be challenging during the spring season due to high school baseball commitments, but we’re open to exploring opportunities if there’s enough interest. If you or someone you know is interested, let us know, and we’ll work to make it happen!
The cost of signing up depends on several variables, but we do everything we can to keep the cost as low as possible for you. Your registration fee covers participation, professional coaching, a hat and jersey that you keep, tournament fees, insurance, and a minimum of 3 games (with a maximum of 5 games). You'll also enjoy a stress-free, development-focused experience where players can grow their skills while having fun on the field.
We can apply the coupon code retroactively as a one-time courtesy, but a $10 processing fee will be charged to cover administrative costs. To avoid this fee in the future, please apply the code at checkout.
Yes! If your player already has a GPC uniform from a previous tournament, they can reuse it for future events and receive a discount on registration. Plus, once your player participates in a GPC tournament, we’ll send a coupon code to your email providing a $25 discount for a future event. This helps you save money while keeping things simple. Just let us know during registration that you’ll be reusing the uniform!

Understanding the Travel Baseball 2025 Age Chart
The Travel Baseball 2025 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.
How to Use the Age Chart
Find Your Player’s Birth Month and Year:
Look for your player’s birth year in the chart.
Match it with their birth month to locate their age division for the 2025 season.
Understand the Cutoff Date:
Travel baseball typically uses a May 1 cutoff date. Players are assigned to divisions based on their age as of April 30, 2025.
For example, if your player turns 12 before April 30, they will be in the 12U division. If they turn 12 after April 30, they remain in the 11U division.
Select the Correct Division:
Use the age division listed on the chart to register your player for the appropriate team or tournament.
