• There will be no sanctioning fees for teams that play in Perfect Game Midwest events for the entire 2021 season, through August 15, 2021, with the exception of high school baseball.
• After Aug. 15, 2021, the cost to register each team is $60/year.  That registration fee will cover your team for all Perfect Game events and will also allow each team to create its own team page, including individual player profiles. 

Our full schedule of events has events that are priced for team budgets at every age, ability, and commitment level.  Prices for events will vary based on age, level, facilities, and additional event components. Events that feature things like live streaming, staff-run live scoring, and extra social media/scouting coverage will be higher price points because teams are receiving much more than a typical tournament. Events that are hosted at new turf complexes could also have slightly higher price points based on facility cost.

Yes! We offer a healthy amount of events for all ages and classifications ensuring everyone gets to be a part of the PG community.

You can purchase Perfect Game insurance for your team HERE, but if you already have insurance, Perfect Game always accepts team insurance from any licensed provider.

Perfect Game’s reach extends far beyond the ballpark. Through the creation of the PG Cares Foundation, PG has provided mentorship, guidance and support to youth from America’s underserved and at-risk communities. In similar fashion, MSP Love was founded to give players, coaches and fans an avenue to make a positive impact on their communities through donation drives, fundraisers and volunteer opportunities. Combining the efforts of both organizations under the PG Cares Foundation, children across the country will receive the hope and opportunity they need to achieve their dreams and create a brighter future.

Find out more about the PG Cares Foundation HERE

We will have the same staff on board as we did before, so if there is somebody in our office you’ve previously enjoyed to communicate directly with, reach out to them in whatever fashion you’re used to. As always, you can reach out to [email protected] for any question or concern as well.
