"I was such a dangerous hitter I even got intentional walks in batting practice."
Casey Stengel, 1967
Why does everybody stand up and sing 'Take Me Out to the Ballgame' when they're already there? ~Larry Anderson
"Hating the New York Yankees is as American as apple pie, unwed mothers and cheating on your income tax."
Mike Royko.

I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring"

Our History
The Team USA San Diego International is a non-profit independent organization. Founded by AL Alvarado, each year, players between the ages of 14 and 15, are selected from San Diego County to compete in the International World Boys League Tournament, this year being held in Sydney Australia. We will also be playing exhibition games in Sydney as we will arrive 1 week before the tournament begins. The team will play these exhibition games and also see all the sites and history that the area of Sydney Australia has to offer. This will be the cultural experience of a lifetime for these players and families.
The games began in 1977, when the first team was invited to play in a Goodwill Friendship game with the Japan Boys League team in San Diego. In 1979, a team from Tijuana, Mexico was also invited to participate. In 1980, San Diego was invited to play Goodwill Friendship games in Osaka, Japan for the first time. Then in 1981, San Diego hosted the last Goodwill Friendship games.
In 1982, the first International Tournament was held in Osaka, Japan. San Diego has participated in all of these tournaments and have hosted the tournament 4 times, 1983, 1987, 1998 and 2004.
After it was suggested other countries may want to particpate in this tournament, teams from Brasil, Chinese Taipei, China, Canada, Argentina, Korea, Australia, Puerto Rico, Peru and Italy joined Japan, Alameda, Fresno and San Diego in this tournament.
Many of the young men who have played for Team USA San Diego have had outstanding high school careers and many have gone on to compete at the college and professional level.
THANK YOU, Al Alvarado, for helping then and now to make this all possible for every young man who has participated in our organization, to maybe realize his dream to play for their country. You have touched so many lives during your leadership of Team USA San Diego. We are forever grateful to you AL Alvarado, our "First Round Draft Pick"
This Is The 30th Year Of The World Boys Tournament
