BEREA BRAVES

U12 TRAVEL BASEBALL

The Berea Braves U12 Travel Baseball Team is a collection of All Star Talent from the city of Berea Ohio. Berea is located in the Southwest suburbs of Cleveland and home to Baldwin Wallace College & the NFL's Cleveland Browns. The team plays in the Cuyahoga Valley Baseball Association league (CVBA). The CVBA was established in 1991 as an organization of community level All Star teams. This organization has helped to provide a higher level of competition than a community level league could provide. It's believed that by having the best players of a community compete with the best of other communities will better prepare these athletes to compete at the High School and College levels. CVBA will continue to exist as long as communities are interested in providing athletes with a higher level of competition.
