Super Series Baseball uses the May 1^st age cut-off.

  To determine your team's age, in all divisions, determine the age of your oldest player on April 30^th, 2008, and that is the age your team should play.
 

All teams will be assured of a 5-game minimum.  Teams will have three pool play games for seeding in to a double-elimination championship bracket.  Most teams will play more that five games.

Pools will be seeded based on national qualifying points earned at our qualifying events.  The Super Series national office will make all pool assignments.

Following pool play, bracket seed will be based on: (1st) won-loss record in pool play; (2nd) runs allowed; (3rd) runs scored.

Teams failing to advance to the championship bracket will also play no less than 5 games, and participate in the double-elimination consolation bracket.

All national qualifying points earned during the regular
Fall-Winter season will be used in making pool assignments.  The teams with the most points will receive the highest seeds in pool play.

    15U to 18U Teams  =  $625.00
