Bradley County youth baseball teams were busy Tuesday evening playing for championships at Industrial, Bradley North and Blue Springs recreation complexes.

Many of the teams were forced to play title games due to numerous rainouts this season. Competition was finalized for the 4-year-old divisions, the 5-6 age division and 9-10 competitors.

With the conclusion of park championships, many of the local recreation teams, coaches and players are looking ahead to all-star and state tournament events, which will be played throughout the region. Some teams are expected to advance to national tournaments later this summer, but Tuesday’s games conclude spring seasons.

Above and below are action photos from Blue Springs and Bradley North on Tuesday.
