The Australian Youth Championships will be held a Blacktown International Sports Park, where both the Under 16 and Under 18 events will be held for the first time since January 2020. The revised Championship format will see further innovation from the 2022 U16 AYC’s held in Redcliffe during the July.
Players will arrive into Sydney on the 9th of January prior to taking part in Showcase activities and workouts presented by The Perfect Game on the 10th and 11th. Teams will then move into six double header days of completion to crown the Australian Champions with the finals being played on the 17th of January. In all, over 60 games will be played across the six days of competition, with all games of Field one broadcasted and games on fields 2 and 3 also streamed.
The event will see further integration of strategic partners with Synergy Sport once again providing scouting analysis of the event at both age groups, and the attendance of Driveline Baseball at the Championships to provide workshops and coach education for the 50+ coaches who volunteer their time to support the AYC teams.
