Midwest Summer Baseball · Est. 2026

Real baseball. Fair price.

Fair Ball runs Midwest tournaments for families who are tired of paying more every summer for less. Every event has a 17/18U division played in front of college coaches and a 15/16U division built on quality competition at quality fields, close to home and on a schedule you can plan around.

Ground rules

What every Fair Ball event promises

One price, posted up front

The entry fee is the fee. No surprise add-ons or membership fees to pay.

Schedules you can plan around

Game times published well before the event so families can plan ahead, minimizing nights on the road and overall cost.

Fields worth the drive

Well-kept high school and college facilities across the Midwest, not overflow fields at the edge of a complex or hours from your hotel.

Coaches who are actually there

We compensate college coaches to attend our 17/18U games, and we share player info with every coach in attendance.

Summer 2027

Two events. Two divisions each.

Register a team in the division that fits. Spots are limited by field count, and registration is paid securely through Stripe.

FAQ

Questions from parents & coaches

How do we register?

Click "Register & pay" on the event you want. You'll pay the entry fee through Stripe, then we'll email you to collect your roster and team contact.

Which college coaches will be at the 17/18U games?

We bring in coaches from programs across the region at every level and compensate them to attend. A list of confirmed schools will be posted here before each event.

Will there be a 14U division?

At some events, yes. When a 14U division opens, it will be listed on that event with its own registration link.

What's your refund policy?

Full refund if we can't place your team or the event is cancelled. Policy details for team withdrawals will be posted before registration opens.

Can individual players sign up?

Registration is by team. If you're a player without a team, email us and we'll try to connect you with one.
