American League is our advanced Kid Pitch League for kids 2nd Grade – 4th Grade. 

1st graders are automatically placed in our National League.   Parents can request to have their 1st grader tryout for American League by contacting the House Director.

This is a full kid pitch league preparing kids for travel baseball.

Focus on development, fundamentals, and the joy of the game in a more competitive league.

American League practices/plays games 2 nights per week.
Practices and games are scheduled on Tuesday and Thursday nights. 

Games start early May and run through end of June.

There is also a Mid Season Jamboree and an End of the Year Tournament.

At the end of the season, the team that wins the End of Year Tournament will be sent to the Minnesota Rec State Championship.

Volunteer Checks of $250 MUST be submitted at tryouts/evaluations. 

Each player is required to submit a volunteer check prior to entering evaluations. Please add American/National  & child name to the memo line on your check.

Check out the "DIBS" page on the website and sign up early to fulfill your volunteer requirements.  

Shifts available starting with the Icebreaker Weekend. Additional opportunities available through the season.
Check often for new opportunities.

All kids who register who are 2nd grade through 4th grade get to attend tryouts at the new Elk River Multipurpose facility. This gives this group of kids a chance to be evaluated by professional evaluators and coaches alongside our traveling kids.

These tryout scores will be used to help split up the kids that will be playing in our National and American leagues. Our goal is to have teams that are similar in talent so that we can all have a fun and competitive season.

Tryouts will be held March 26-27. Details on time will be sent out the week before the tryouts.

If you cannot attend tryouts, you must contact the league commissioner.  Click here to do so. If you are not able to attend, you will be asked to come in to the Elk River Baseball Facility for an evaluation prior to the team draft.
