DBB INC.

Mecklenburg County, Virginia’s bid was unanimously accepted by the DBB Board of Directors to host the 2023 DBB World Series (age 13-14 division). The tournament will be held July 21-26, 2023. Everyone is looking forward to a great World Series in Virginia.

Tommy Hailey, DBB Deputy Commissioner, will be the point of contact for the event. The 2023 tournament will be the 61st World Series for the DBB age 13-14 division. Numerous years have elapsed since the organization last played a Boys World Series in Virginia. Mecklenburg County will do an outstanding job as the host.

Parker Park, located in South Hill, is an excellent sports facility for hosting this signature event. With South Hill located directly on interstate 85 near the border of Virginia and North Carolina, this should result in many visitors from our eleven states. More information will be provided on our website:

Step up to the Majors with Pitch Hit & Run!

Major League Baseball® Pitch Hit & Run is a free event that provides boys and girls — ages 7 to 14 — an opportunity to showcase their baseball and softball skills, while earning a chance to attend and perform during the MLB® World Series!

Athletes are tested, and their measurements are recorded. Based on their scores, they advance from a local event to a Team Championship held in MLB stadiums. Top scores then qualify for an all-expenses-paid trip for two to compete at the National Finals, which is hosted at the World Series.
