What is the AAU National League?
The AAU Baseball National League (AAUBNL) was created in 2007 as a test product of the AAU Baseball Committee. Because of the success of this program, it has been expanded and enhanced to provide you with the features you see below. The AAUBNL is maintained at www.aaunationalleague.org.
On the AAUBNL web site teams from all parts of the United States as well as International teams can upload team rosters, coach's information, athlete's information, and a team photo. All games played against two teams that are listed on the AAUBNL web site are considered a league game. In all league games teams earn points based upon winning percentage of the team they are playing as well as the outcome of all games played. By utilizing this Power Ranking System teams can see where they rank by age group within their district as well as by age group nationally.
Newly Created Features:
. National Power Rankings
. Local Power Rankings
. Individual team pages
. Automatic team stats recorder
. Scheduling feature
. Team to Team communication
. Advancement to the National League World Series - More to Come!
Participating in the AAUBNL (Differences with AAU and Non-AAU participants) In order for any team to participate in the AAUBNL they will need a club membership and a non-athlete membership. Teams who wish to utilize all aspects of the AAUBNL website as well as take advantage of the benefits of AAU Membership must have current athlete and non-athlete memberships for their entire roster. Those additional aspects are as follows:
. Ability to just enter AAU membership numbers where all required information (name, address, phone number, etc) will automatically populate onto the roster.
. Ability to register for all AAU Baseball National Championship events without having to re-type any information.
. Athletes and non-athletes are covered at all AAU Sanctioned events as well all non-sanctioned events if they have the added benefit membership.
. More opportunities to advance to the National League World Series
