Age eligibility
Players must be 10U-eligible under USSSA age rules for the Fall 2027 season. USSSA uses a September 1 cutoff, and the Fall 2027 season falls in USSSA's 2028 season.
For Fall 2027, 10U is expected to mean players born September 1, 2016 – August 31, 2017. To be confirmed once USSSA publishes its 2028 age chart. Check with the USSSA age calculator.
Players may play up but never down. Eligibility is verified for every player by birth date.
