Madison Travel Baseball

About MTB

Madison Travel Baseball (MTB) is an unaffiliated partner program of Madison Little League. We aim to provide a club-like baseball experience at a recreational-level cost that commands a team-first focus, and seek players who have a baseball-first commitment.

Why Play MTB

  • Play baseball with your current friends and classmates and represent the town of Madison
  • Play, learn and develop locally
  • Compete at a higher level against other club teams from the area
  • Complement your participation in Madison LL and maintain eligibility for the Williamsport Tournament All-Star team

Our Objectives

MTB provides an opportunity for more competitive baseball for serious players aged 8-12 in Madison, including play at the Intermediate (50/70) level for 11- and 12-year-olds. Our program features winter training, and spring, summer and fall baseball teams for committed and capable players. We engage professional coaches and instructors to work with our teams and help educate our coaches. Although we are not a Little League program, we do require our players to participate in Madison LL to be eligible for MTB teams.

Summer Travel Baseball

To be eligible for summer MTB teams, players must participate in the Madison LL spring season and play a minimum of eight Madison LL spring games. Tryout dates and registration for summer teams will be announced in the spring. Vacation is permitted over the 4th of July holiday for MTB players (note that Madison LL Williamsport Tournament All-Star team players have different requirements), and the season usually runs until the first week of August.

The summer season schedule will be determined by MTB and each team’s Manager. Typically, teams will be entered into either a weeknight league or a weekend tournament schedule, but not both. The MTB summer program is designed to complement, not conflict with, the Madison LL Williamsport Tournament teams, and we expect MTB players to try out for Madison LL Williamsport teams offered for their age levels.
