Baseline Games

Baseline Games

July 30 - August 2, 2026 at Grand Park Sports Campus in Westfield, IN

As an individual player event, athletes are selected and placed onto teams, creating a unique opportunity to compete alongside and against top performers from across the region and country.

This event serves as the entry point into the Prep Baseball national showcase pipeline, giving athletes the opportunity to establish their foundation through verified data, professional evaluation, and gameplay in a fun and educational environment.

 Top Players. One Field.

The Baseline Games brings together players (8U-13U) from across the region and country.

Invitations are primarily earned through:

• Performance and recognition at Prep Baseball Youth tournaments
• Standout play against top competition within tournament environments

By centralizing top performers from the tournament landscape, our staff is able to evaluate players side-by-side against elite competition-a critical step in long-term player identification.
