Elizabethtown Sports Park

Admission to all of the Youth Baseball Nationals games is included in the team entry fees. There will be NO GATE FEE for the event! We encourage family and friends to come to the complex to cheer on the athletes and show their support.

Game balls will be provided for all games.  Teams are to bring their own practice balls and any other necessary equipment (i.e. catcher’s gear, bats, gloves, etc.).  Uniforms are NOT provided at the Nationals. Teams are to provide their own uniforms.  Each player on a team should have a unique number displayed on their jersey.

Teams will be able to have ONE team cooler in their dugout during game play.  During check-in, we will provide your team with a team cooler tag.  This tag must be on the team cooler at all times to be allowed inside the park or dugout.  Any cooler without this tag are not permitted.  All other baseball and safety equipment are the responsibility of each team.

Registered coaches are required to be wearing their Nationals coach pass at all times in order to be allowed on the field of play and inside the dugouts.

The Nationals has a medical team that will be onsite for the duration of the event. It is important to remember that our medical team are not medical doctors. They will provide basic first aid, determine the severity of injuries and make recommendations as to whether or not a player should see a doctor or go to an emergency room. The staff are employees of the local hospital closest to the facility.

There is limited parking in the lot closest to the baseball diamonds and it is common for that lot to be full. Additional overflow parking is available near the soccer and football complexes. Be prepared to arrive early should you need to walk from these complexes to the baseball area of the park. Limited shuttle service will be available between these lots, but we cannot guarantee that the shuttle will be available for your party when you arrive at the park.
