PROGRAM INFO
The USSSA All American Program was created in 2015 to increase individual opportunities for fastpitch players to showcase their skills and represent their local area in a National event.
The All American Program creates a pathway for individual athletes to earn a way to a pinnacle, National event — the All American Games. Athletes ages 9 to 14 can earn their way to the All American Games via our All American Tryouts hosted throughout the country. Athletes will be evaluated at each tryout by professional athletes and/or coaches and then will be selected based on those evaluations to represent their Regional Team in the All American Games hosted annually at USSSA Space Coast Complex in Viera, FL.
The six regions across the country are the West, South, Midwest, Great Lakes, Southeast, and Northeast.
