History
Triple Crown Baseball Divisions of Play: We have three different divisions of play. Our top competitive level is our regular division, which you will see listed simply as 9u, 10u, and so on. This division includes “Select” teams and is open to any team that wants to compete at that level. This is our most competitive division and the one we hope most teams will choose to enter. Players get better when they are challenged by top competition!
Division 2 -When you see Division 2 (or D2) after the age group, that indicates a bracket designed for teams that are not yet ready to compete with top teams. Division 2 is similar to the second-tier divisions you see in national sanctioning organizations. However, even if you are sanctioned as a lower team by a national sanctioning body, that does not guarantee you will play Division 2 with Triple Crown.
Division 3 -includes teams that are less competitive than division 2 teams and many are recreational type teams. Division 3 teams can not qualify for post-season play.
Here is how Triple Crown compares with other sanctioning bodies. However, we always encourage teams to play up.
Division 1= Major or National Division 2= AAA or American Division 3= AA or Minor
