History/Mission:
Our XDS Baseball World Series is going on its 16th year & continues to host teams from all over the western half of the United States coming to beautiful Southern California to compete for the title. It not only attracts teams from the Southern California area, but has brought teams from all over including areas like Arizona, Central California, Colorado, Guam, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Missouri, Mexico, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Northern California, Tennessee, Texas, Utah & Washington just to name a few. Our goal for this event is not only to provide your team with a great tournament to play in & to play baseball, but to give your team an experience to enjoy while not playing baseball here to be able to participate in the many amazing things Southern California has to offer in beautiful weather!
