Baseball Beyond Borders Tickets

Baseball Beyond Borders (BBB) is a mission-driven performer and program founder-led project rooted in communities where baseball intersects life, education, and opportunity. Based in Kent, Washington, BBB was founded in 2014 by Bookie Gates, evolving from Chaffey Baseball Inner-City (beginnings in 2007) with a clear aim: increase access to sport, transform lives, and create pathways through mentorship and education. BBB blends storytelling, music, and the power of sport to spotlight civil rights-era history and contemporary youth achievement.

Beyond performances, BBB leads transformative programs like Moving Beyond 12 (MB12), a college and career prep curriculum featuring workshops, mentoring, and active family engagement. The organization’s work has earned recognition, including the Gert Hauser Moving Beyond 12 Award, honoring student-athletes for academic excellence and community impact. The story continues with cinematic documentation in the Emmy-nominated Reconciliation Tour, a collaboration with Converge Media that highlights BBB’s civil rights-era baseball journey.

Geographically, BBB is deeply connected to the Pacific Northwest, with performances and outreach expanding across the Seattle area and ventures like the 2025 inaugural HBCU Seattle Series at Bannerwood Park in Bellevue, WA. This multi-day event (March 14–16, 2025) will feature Coppin State University and Seattle University, complemented by the March 13 Take Me Out to the Quad experience, creating a unique blend of sport, culture, and community engagement.

Whether you’re seeking inspiring live performances, educational outreach, or a chance to support programs that lift local youth through sport, Baseball Beyond Borders offers an engaging, genuine experience. Secure your seats through Gold Coast Tickets for upcoming BBB events, and stay connected with official updates via their social channels.
