About the Event
The Veterans Day Challenge is a long-running Southern Nevada baseball tournament welcoming teams from across the West Coast and throughout the country. With multiple age divisions, it gives players the opportunity to compete against visiting clubs while families cheer from the sidelines.
The weekend also honors those who have served in the military. Vegas Valley Baseball encourages teams to wear camouflage jerseys and take the field with pride as part of that recognition.
This is a youth tournament rather than a professional exhibition game. Spectators should plan around a particular team’s schedule and assigned ballpark.
Registration & Spectator Admission
Spectators pay no gate fee. Team entry fees are separate and range from $680 to $990 by division.
Coaches can use the official USSSA event listing to access division registration, tournament information and schedule links.
Stay-to-Play Lodging Requirement
This is a stay-to-play tournament. All participating teams and attendees booking accommodations must use the designated housing provider or providers affiliated with the event.
Arrange lodging through the tournament’s approved housing options rather than booking independently. The official event listing provides access to the lodging information.
About the Venues
Games are distributed across multiple ballparks rather than held at one stadium. Listed facilities include Desert Diamonds, Rafael Rivera, Pecos Legacy Park, O’Callaghan Park, Mission Hills Park and Montagna Park.
A venue’s inclusion does not mean every division plays there. Use the field assignment attached to your team’s game when choosing a destination, arranging rides or planning travel between games.
Parking & Transportation
Drive or arrange rideshare to the specific ballpark listed on your game schedule. Because the tournament uses facilities across the valley, allow travel time between games scheduled at different parks.
