AAG Operations Manager Joe Hale explained that this regional championship will showcase players from 6th, 7th and 8th grade. “Four all-star teams from each grade level will compete with one champion prevailing from each grade,” stated Hale. 

“Teams are traveling from Seattle, Northern Washington and the Bay Area. As well as Sacramento to compete at this regional championship,” added Hale. “This is the last step before they go on to Naple. Only three of the 12 teams competing will have a chance to play for the National Championship.”
