The USA Premier Baseball 4th of July Firecracker

beginnings of 6 teams in 1995, and now an ever expanding national
and international event with over 130+ teams
 battling
for the 18U/17U/16U Firecracker Classic Championships! Coaches from
most of the local Universities / Colleges plus some from not so
local Colleges will be in attendance as well as the area scouts from
almost all of the MLB teams. And that’s what the tournament is
really about, giving players a chance to showcase their talents in
an effort to reach the next level…whatever that might be for them.
Outstanding competition, quality fields, great umpiring, strong
scouting attendance and beautiful Southern California make this the
"Top Rated 18U/16U Summer Baseball Tournament in the Western United
States”
Featuring
130+ Top 18U/17U/16UBaseball Teams from Southern California,

teams against the best So Cal Teams. Just a sample of one Orange

year’s MLB draft! USA Premier Baseball Tournaments have proven
