Overview

SLP Traveling Baseball organizes baseball teams for baseball players living in St. Louis Park or attending school in the St. Louis Park School District. Our goal is to create a comprehensive, community-based program to support the development of players across a wide range of participation levels. Our ultimate vision is to foster consistent teams at the youth level to support our High School and Legion teams. 

The SLP Traveling Baseball program goals are as follows:

  • Provide effective, high quality training for players and coaches at all levels.
  • Provide programs that are cooperative with, and respected by other community programs.
  • Seek to maximize the potential of every player in the program.
  • Encourage and foster player participation for the full length of a player’s youth sports career by putting them in a position for success.
  • Emphasize the importance of teamwork and sportsmanship.

 

Teams and Levels

SLP Metro Traveling Baseball teams play in the Metro Baseball league (www.mbl.bz).  

The final number and level of traveling teams (i.e. AAA, AA, A) offered will be decided by the St. Louis Park Baseball Board and will be determined by registration numbers and talent level.  Traveling teams will play 16 league games (8 home and 8 away) vs surrounding communities in the metro area. 

SLP Traveling Baseball teams typically play Minneapolis, Eden Prairie, Edina, Wayzata and other surrounding communities based on the assigned region.  SLP Traveling teams also typically play in 3 regular season weekend tournaments with the opportunity of up to 3 state tournaments held in July. The SLP Traveling Baseball Season typically runs from Mid-April to end of July.
