How many participants advance in each age group?
The number of participants advancing in each age group will vary. The following competitors will advance in each age and gender group: All-Around Champion, Pitching Champion, Hitting Champion, and Running Champion. Please note that one child may win every category, in which case only that competitor would advance for that age and gender group. For another example, the Pitching Champion may also be the Running Champion. If this is the case, only that competitor will advance for both categories. Second place participants will not advance just because one person wins more than one category. In addition, you may have ties for the Pitching, Hitting or Running Champion (most common in Pitching) – in that scenario, everyone who tied for 1st will advance (unless competitors tie for 1st with the minimum score of 50 points, in which case they would not advance based on that skill).
