USA BASEBALL OPPORTUNITY
Game Day USA is excited to announce that special baseball athletes who participate in
our All-Star events will have the opportunity to be identified by our All-Star coaches for
USA Baseball’s Great Lakes National Team Identification Series (NTIS). Once identified by
Game Day USA, athletes will be directed to enroll in a Great Lakes National Team
Identification Camp in their region. From those camps, USA Baseball’s Great Lakes
Region teams will be formed for 11U, 13U, 14U,16U and 17U players.
USA Baseball invites the
nation’s best baseball
athletes in these age
groups to the USA Baseball
National Training Complex
in Cary, North Carolina
each year, with the ultimate
goal of forming the teams
to represent our country as
part of Team USA.
“ The NTIS gives players from across the country
the opportunity to wear USA across their chest.
It is an outstanding achievement for the athletes to
be able to represent their region, and an honor to
have a chance to be selected for next year’s
National Team Programming.”
- Mark Dvoroznak
USA Baseball Director of Program Development
