Travel Baseball FAQs

When are Travel Try Outs for the 2025 season?  

Try outs for the 2025 Travel Season will be held on Saturday, August 17th.  Please mark this date on your calendar, as this will be the ONLY date offered for Try outs this year.  There will be no make up dates offered, so please plan your summer travel accordingly.  

What if we can't make the tryout date?

Your player will be required to attend August 17th in order to be evaluated for a travel team.  This date will be scored by our external evaluators, and these scores will be used to determine players rankings for team selections.  Please reach out to:  traveldirector@andoverbaseball.org with any questions.

When does the season start?  How long is the travel season?

Many teams will elect to do off season training.  Depending on the coach, these practices may start in January or February.  Off season training is optional to participate in, but encouraged.  The location of these practices is dependent on the coach, as they will set these up on their own.  Common locations include GrandSlam, school gyms, or other area facilities.  ABA sponsored trainings begin in March at the Andover Community Center.  Tournament and game play can start as early as the end of April.  Regular season play typically ends in June, and district playoffs and State Tournaments are in July.  Depending on your team, the season could last until early, or late July.

What is the schedule like?

You can expect practices and games to fill 3 nights per week on average.  There are no set schedules for travel teams, so you may practice, or play, any day of the week.  Most coaches avoid scheduling league games on weekends, and reserve weekends for tournament play.  ABA pays for each team to participate in 3 tournaments per season.  Many teams do elect to participate in a 4th tournament.  Tournaments can include Friday, Saturday and Sunday dates for their games.  

How much does travel baseball cost?

Tryouts are $35 to register.  If selected to a team, there is a registration fee of $575 per player.  These fees include your players uniform (hat, 2 jerseys, 1 pair of pants, and a belt), the practices at the Andover Community Center, 3 regular season tournaments, 1 state tournament (if your team qualifies), and the insurance and umpires for the season.

Many teams will also collect a "slush fund."  These funds will vary by team, but are typically between $100-200 per player, and cover off season trainings, a 4th regular season tournament, and other expenses as outlined by your coach.  If your team qualifies for multiple state tournaments, participation in a 2nd or 3rd state tournament would also be an out of pocket expense, and is typically around $50/player/tournament.

Many teams do elect to have one of their tournaments be an out-of-town tournament.  Costs for hotels, transportation, and food would all be out of pocket expenses for your player.

Where will we be playing?

Home games and practices are all at local fields.  You will have on average 8 away games per season.  Travel could include locations up to an hour away, though typically, teams are within 30 minutes of Andover.

ABA's mission is to provide an educational, safe, and fun environment to learn the game of baseball. We believe organized baseball is more than bats, balls, gloves and uniforms; our organization wants to give our children the opportunity to learn the aspects of teamwork, the virtues of character, courage, loyalty, the respect for authority and the self-discipline that enables our youth to be leaders. Our organization is made up of entirely volunteers, many of whom work year round to plan and do as much as possible in the interest of our players. We thank all the parents/guardians and players for all of your support.
