Weekend Packing List
From tournament detailsGets smarter as families rate this venue after each tournament.
Water bottles
One per person per game minimum. Budget more in summer.
Portable chairs
Bleachers exist but fill up fast. Bring your own.
Sunscreen
Apply before you leave the hotel. Reapply at lunch.
Cash
Concessions are frequently cash-only at tournament complexes.
Portable battery charger
Navigating between 3 venues plus group chats will kill your phone by 11am. Fully charged before you leave.
Snacks
Tournament food runs out. Pack backup snacks regardless of what the concession stand looks like on paper.
Plan to arrive early
With 162 teams, parking and check-in lines move slow. Budget extra time before first pitch.
Hand sanitizer
Tournament bathrooms. You know.
Printed or screenshot schedule
3 venues. Know where you're going before you leave the parking lot — cell signal near sports complexes is unreliable.
Extra uniform
Two-day tournament. Saturday uniforms will not be game-ready by Sunday morning without a backup.
Ibuprofen / first aid basics
Long weekend, dirt, heat, sore everything. You will need at least one of these.
Rain poncho (not an umbrella)
Ponchos leave your hands free for a chair, a kid, and a phone. Umbrellas at baseball tournaments are a social contract violation.
WTH Survival Guide
Someone sat in that parking lot at 6:45am. Someone found the only shade tree. Someone knows about the bathrooms. They left notes. Add yours.
