WELCOME TO THE 2026 SUMMER SEASON REGISTRATION!

We’re excited to announce that registration is officially open for the 2026 Bloomington Traveling Baseball Association (BTBA) tryouts! Registration will close on July 25, 2025 - registering ASAP is encouraged and appreciated!

Here is the link to register: https://btba.sportngin.com/register/form/664373296

Important Update for This Year:

• 9U: $399 (non-refundable $100 BTBA membership fee + $299 registration fee) – Includes 3 home/away tournaments
• 10U-15U: $499 (non-refundable $100 BTBA membership fee + $399 registration fee) – Includes 4 home/away tournaments

TRYOUTS MAKEUP  (INCLEMENT WEATHER only)
When: Tuesday, July 29, 2025
Where: Hrbek Fields (9001 Nicollet Ave S Bloomington, MN  55420)

We expect over 300 participants across all ages. We will release age-specific tryout time slots based on actual registration numbers closer to the tryout date. However, in order to give families some idea of when their player would be trying out here is the overall breakdown:

• 9U, 10U, 11U and 12U will be in the morning (8am-12pm)
• 13U, 14U and 15U players will be in the afternoon (12pm-4pm).

Each age group will be between 1-1.5 hours in duration. Again, we will communicate the exact timing assigned to each age group closer to the tryout date when registration numbers become more clear. This will help us create the best possible experience for players and families alike.

Team Selection Timing & Process

While tryouts take place in late July, team selection will not occur until at least September or October. This timeline allows BTBA to:

• Collect and review coach-submitted player feedback forms
• Finalize head coach selections
• Collaborate with head coaches to select fair and balanced team rosters

We appreciate your patience and understanding throughout this process—it ensures a thoughtful, data-driven approach to forming teams that prioritize player development and competitive balance.

Thank you for your continued trust and support in BTBA.
