Beloit Brings Perfect Game Events to Wisconsin for First Time
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – AUGUST 1, 2024
BELOIT, Wis. – Visit Beloit partnered with Perfect Game, the premier provider of amateur baseball events, to bring their tournaments to Wisconsin for the first time with two weekends in 2024. The events were the Super 25 Wisconsin Regional, June 15 and 16, and the Wisconsin Elite Championship, June 29 and 30.
Perfect Game, the most respected name in youth baseball, is looking to expand their membership in Wisconsin. The inaugural events attracted teams from eleven different cities in four states, with half of the teams from outside Wisconsin. The Beloit tournaments offered a unique opportunity for young baseball athletes to showcase their skills and passion for the game.
A Ready, Set, Go Grant from Travel Wisconsin allowed Visit Beloit to purchase equipment to improve the Stateline Family YMCA Youth Sports Complex. The equipment included new portable mounds and home run fencing that improved the facility for the Perfect Game events as well as all area youth that utilize the facilities daily. Additionally, the equipment will enable the facility to attract other tournaments in the future with the ability to hold competitions simultaneously on more fields.
Visit Beloit, Perfect Game, and the Stateline Family YMCA are already discussing plans for 2025 to continue hosting the youth baseball organization in Beloit. “Perfect Game is one of the most recognizable names in youth baseball, and we are thrilled to partner with them to host events in Beloit,” says Matthew Bosen, Director of Sales and Servicing for Visit Beloit. “We are incredibly grateful to Travel Wisconsin and the Stateline Family YMCA for their partnership that made the events possible, and we look forward to successful tournaments with Perfect Game and our partners for years to come.”
