The Corn Belt League is designed for college baseball players who want to stay sharp and continue developing throughout the summer. Open to JuCo, NCAA (D1, D2, D3), and NAIA players, the CBL provides players with competitive game reps that helps you return to school better than when you left.

All games are played in Omaha, allowing for consistent competition, minimal travel, and a structured schedule that supports both baseball and life off the field. Playing in Omaha during June and July offers a unique experience—highlighted by the College World Series being in town—while evening games and limited travel give players the flexibility to work, earn income, and enjoy a balanced summer.

Additionally, players have the opportunity to compete alongside any current or former teammates, making the summer both familiar and competitive! All you have to do is put their name in the player request section of the registration.
