This division fields one team and represents the highest level of competition in our baseball program. Playing time is earned at this level, and roster spots are limited, so cuts may be necessary. Players can expect to compete against teams from within our Sub-Section, such as Perham, Fergus Falls, Detroit Lakes, Thief River Falls, and Moorhead, or teams from Eastern North Dakota. The team participates in two weekend tournaments, as well as a year-end district tournament and potentially a state tournament. Teams are typically bused to most out-of-town games. Parents are responsible for providing transportation to out-of-town weekend tournaments.

Evaluations
We will field one team at this age level. This is the most competitive age division in our baseball program. There will be a defined number of players rostered, and cuts will be made if necessary. Evaluation date(s), time(s), and location(s) will be communicated once registration closes.
Coming Prepared
Players should bring their own water bottles clearly marked with their name. Players must bring their own glove and are strongly recommended to bring their own batting helmet and bat. We will have bats and batting helmets available to use, if needed.
