MISSOURI
Teams seeking to play a wide diversity of teams might look at our St Louis location. St Louis is the original location for the AAYBA World Series program and has many organizations sending teams to us year after year and have done so since we started back in 1989. With St Louis being located in the middle of the country you will find that teams travel from several states simply because of the easy access to the state of Missouri. For those of you looking for a wide variety of states represented I recommend our St Louis, Missouri location. St Louis is a great choice for organizations who have teams in multiple age groups with parents having two or more children playing on teams looking to travel to a post-season event. Since all age groups are played at the same location and during the same week parents can save quite a bit of money and time plus they won't have to pick which child they will get to watch and which one they must miss. For those wanting to fly on a budget, St Louis is also a hub for Southwest Airlines.
As always, opening ceremonies will take place at Busch Stadium on the field prior to a St Louis Cardinals game. All players and coaches with a paid ticket for the game will be allowed onto the field for a pre-game parade. Six players and one coach will be selected to watch batting practice from the field just behind home plate. Three players will be randomly selected to throw out the games first pitch.
The USSSA 2010 World Series Tournament will be held in Chesterfield, Missouri.
Games will be played at the Chesterfield Valley Athletic Association Complex, just outside St Louis, Missouri.
