​Team Travel

​

Babe Ruth League, Inc.’s rules, regulations, and policies have been created, reviewed and revised over the past seven decades to ensure a safe, fun, and healthy environment for all children. For those who make it to the pinnacle of the tournament trail, our top priority is to ensure the players, coaches and managers are provided with the best options to enjoy the World Series experience. It should be noted that Babe Ruth League pays quite a bit of the expenses, as well as secures sponsorships, to achieve this goal. 

​

The COVID-19 pandemic has created and underscored countless financial challenges for all of youth sports. Managing the COVID-19 health crisis and the economic recovery ahead will require careful management and allocation of future financial resources. 

​

In order to continue to offer a once-in-a-lifetime experience that provides a unique competitive, social and cultural exchange for all World Series participants, Babe Ruth League, Inc. has found it necessary to re-evaluate and amend its travel benefits for regional championship teams to take part in the World Series.
