10U NYBC Nationals - An Inaugural Event! Print E-mail
August 20, 2008: Cordova, Tennessee

Get ready for an inaugural event, as eight 10U teams from seven states will compete for the, first ever, NYBC National Championship.

The matchups are set for the inaugural (NYBC) National Youth Baseball Championship tournament for 10U teams.  This event marks a first of its kind tournament.  It will take place August 21-24 at Gameday Baseball's First Tennessee Sports Complex in Cordova, Tennessee - which is located on the outskirts of Memphis.

These National Youth Baseball Championships are the result of the initial effort of the Major Youth Baseball Alliance, LLC (MYBA).  MYBA is a newly formed company comprised of eight major youth organizations, including AABC (American Amateur Baseball Congress), AAU (Amateur Athletic Union of the United States), Babe Ruth Baseball, Dixie Youth Baseball, NABF (National Amateur Baseball Federation), PONY Baseball, Super Series Baseball of America, and USSSA (United States Specialty Sports Association).  This years championship brackets are limited to 10U and 12U age groups – though future plans call for this venue to be expanded to as many as 8 age groups.  These two age groups represent the champions that have reached the top of more than 100,000 teams located across America.

Participation in this event is exclusively by invitation only.  This year’s list of the eight exclusive 10U teams
will travel from seven states.  They are each representing one of the eight leagues.  This event will culminate on Sunday August 24th, as the NYBC 2008 National Champions for the 10U and age division will be crowned.

4.
Kenner, LA (Babe Ruth)

This years match-ups will feature two teams that are ranked by TravelBallSelect.  The Tomoteros, who were the USSSA Elite-24 runner-ups and have been ranked, as high as, #1 by TBS.  In addition, the Miami Playmakers have proven their power not only across the PONY league play, but also were runners-up in the week 2 championship game at Cooperstown Dreams Park - losing to a very good Leon Medical Center team that is ranked #3 nationally.  This is a good indication that these playmakers will come to this event with a lot of tournament savy.  Cooprstown is tough venue to play since it always fields over 100 teams.  The Playmakers are coming into this tournament ranked 8th nationally, by TravelBallSelect.

TravelBallSelect.com will be reporting the news and events of this tournament from opening pitch through the crowning of champions.
