(LOS ANGELES, CA) -- The California Collegiate League is proud to announce new formats for both the 2020 season and 2020 playoffs. This year the CCL will have a regional style, 5-team double elimination tournament with a winner takes all championship game.
The State Championship Tournament presented by Placer Valley Tourism will be held in Lincoln, Calif. at McBean Stadium, home of the Lincoln Potters. The tournament will run from Friday, July 31, through Sunday, August 2.
The CCL regular season will have a 3-Division format featuring North, Central and South Divisions.
