Baseball NSW Opens 2025 High Performance Programs

Baseball NSW invites interested participants to register for our High Performance Programs comprising the U18 Performance Pathway Program (PPP) and the U16 Developing Pathway Program (DPP).

Eligible players for the PPP are players born in 2008 or 2009, while eligible players for the DPP are those born in 2010 or 2011.

The selection process involves both automatic invitations, as determined by BNSW High Performance staff, and a trial process. Players selected through automatic invitations will receive notifications via email.

Interested participants to the PPP are advised that they should be of a representative standard for their charter, with realistic potential to represent New South Wales at the U18 level.

Likewise, interested participants to the DPP are advised that they should meet the minimum standard of Division 1 club ball, with a realistic potential to represent NSW at the U16 AYC on January 2026.

The PPP will cover ten weeks from 24 June to 28 August 2025, each week comprising 2 x 3-hour training sessions.

PPP sessions will take place at Diamond 1 of Blacktown International Sports Park, from 6 to 9 p.m. every Tuesday and Thursday.
