The Atlanta Braves will be bringing youth tournaments to each state in Braves Country, as a part of our Growing the Game initiative. The Braves Country Battles will be focused on creating a fun baseball experience in a friendly yet competitive atmosphere. The Battles will take place in each state within Braves Country and will culminate in Atlanta at the Braves Country Championships in July.

Refund Policy
Refunds will only be administered if our staff is given at least three (3) weeks written notice prior to an event OR under extreme circumstances on a case by case basis. Please be considerate of our planning and execution of all events, including other teams' plans as this may affect a larger group. We want to be as accommodating as possible for all parties involved.
Team Classification/Division BreakdownIn an attempt to keep the tournaments fun and competitive, we are asking that each team self classify during the registration process. We have gathered different classification terms and descriptions to help clarify what each division means. For smaller events, this may mean everyone still plays together for pool play but then we break out the teams into Gold/Silver for bracket play. For larger events, where it makes sense, we would create separate divisions to be played for both pool play and bracket play. All in all, the goal is to create a good experience for all teams involved. Below is a breakdown of each classification:
- D1: Major/All-Levels of AAA, Competitive Nationally and Super-Competitive Regionally
- D2: Medium / Level AA, High-Level Intermediate, Competitive Regionally and Super-Competitive Locally
- D3: Low A All-Levels of A, All-Stars, Rec-Level Intermediate/Beginner, Competitive Locally
- Rec: Local Recreation Teams, Beginner, Competes & Plays Locally
