History
Join Triple Crown Baseball for this college exposure event!
2010 will be the first year for the Triple Crown United States Baseball Championships. The Richmond area was chosen because of its rich history, reputation for family-friendly fun, and ideal location. Richmond is located less than a days drive from half the U.S. population and easily accessible by plane ,train, or automobile. This vibrant city is just 8 hours from Atlanta, GA, and 9 hours from Boston, MA .
This event will now serve as the championship for the 16U, 17U, and 18U divisions that previously were held in Myrtle Beach, SC, at the Summer Nationals. It will offer teams the opportunity to play on quality baseball diamonds, with games being hosted at the University of Richmond, Randolph Macon College, RF&P Park, and others.
With the increasing importance of college exposure for players 16 thru 18, this will be a championship venue that will offer strong competition and a focus on college exposure.
