Corona and Norco travel baseball families spent Saturday, Nov. 7, 2026, at two of the busiest ballparks in the Inland Empire. The USSSA Fall State Championship filled Big League Dreams Chino Hills and Big League Dreams Jurupa Valley, the Riverside-area park near Eastvale and Mira Loma, with a two-day, three-game-guarantee tournament that runs through Sunday, Nov. 8.

Three teams carrying local names were in the official schedule on Saturday: the Corona Avengers in 9U AA, the Corona Avengers 12u Black in 12U AA, and the Norco Rough Riders in 13U AA. Here is how their pool games went, what happened at each park, and how to follow Sunday's brackets.

Saturday scores for Corona and Norco teams

All scores below come from the official USSSA Game Center for event 418303, checked again at about 7:15 p.m. Pacific on Saturday. Times are Pacific.

Corona Avengers 12u Black (12U AA) — 1–1 in pool play

• Noon, BLD Jurupa Valley, Vero Beach field: Cali National 12u Khan 23, Corona Avengers 12u Black 2.
• 2 p.m., BLD Jurupa Valley, Vero Beach field: Corona Avengers 12u Black 15, GPA Panthers 11.

After a rough opener against Cali National, the 12u Black team bounced back two hours later on the same field and put up 15 runs to beat GPA Panthers. That win is the local highlight of the day. The 12U AA division is one of the largest in the event, with 16 teams listed in the Game Center.

Corona Avengers (9U AA) — 0–2 in pool play

• 8 a.m., BLD Jurupa Valley, Polo field: SoCal Royals 9u 14, Corona Avengers 3.
• 10 a.m., BLD Jurupa Valley, Polo field: West Coast Blackdogs 9U 17, Corona Avengers 8.

Corona's 9-and-under team drew the first slot of the day and played both of its pool games on the Polo field. The Avengers scored eight runs in the second game against a West Coast Blackdogs 9U team that went 2–0 in its Saturday pool games. The 9U AA division has eight teams.

Norco Rough Riders (13U AA) — 0–2 in pool play

• 8 a.m., BLD Chino Hills, Ebbets (turf): ZT SGV Columbia 7, Norco Rough Riders 5.
• 12:30 p.m., BLD Chino Hills, Ebbets (turf): Valley Select 9, Norco Rough Riders 4.

Norco played both of its pool games across the county line at Chino Hills. The Rough Riders were within two runs in the opener and scored four more against Valley Select. The 13U AA division has 12 teams.

Pool records are not seeds. Several late Saturday games in these divisions had not posted final scores at the time of our check, and final pool places are what decide Sunday matchups.

Big League Dreams Jurupa Valley: the Riverside-area park

Address: 10550 Cantu-Galleano Ranch Road, Jurupa Valley, CA 91752. The USSSA event page lists the same street address with a Mira Loma mailing name. Both Corona Avengers teams played here Saturday.

Fields used Saturday: Polo, Vero Beach, Durham, Albuquerque, Pawtucket, Forbes (turf) and Fenway (turf).

Divisions on site Saturday: 9U AA, 10U AA, 11U AAA, 12U AA, part of 12U AAA, and 14U AA. The Game Center listed 46 pool games at Jurupa Valley on Saturday. As of about 7:15 p.m., 35 had final scores and 11 later games (6, 7, 7:15 and 8 p.m. starts) were still in progress or not yet posted.

Those late Jurupa Valley games include two 9U AA games on Polo at 6 and 8 p.m., six 12U AA games on Durham, Vero Beach and Albuquerque at 6 and 8 p.m., a 7 p.m. 11U AAA game on Fenway and two 14U AA games at 7:15 p.m. on Forbes and Pawtucket. We are not reporting any of those as finals.

Big League Dreams Chino Hills

Address: 16333 Fairfield Ranch Road, Chino Hills, CA 91709, according to the park and the City of Chino Hills, which owns the 34-acre sports park. (The USSSA event page lists 16339 Fairfield Ranch Rd., so use the park name in your map app if a number does not match.) Norco played here Saturday.

Fields used Saturday: Yankee, Ebbets (turf), Crosley, Tiger, Fenway and Wrigley (turf).

Divisions on site Saturday: 11U AA, 12U AAA, 13U AA and part of 13U AAA. The Game Center listed 38 pool games at Chino Hills on Saturday.

Overflow fields in Pomona

The tournament also used Washington Park (865 E. Grand Ave., Pomona) and Ralph Welch Park (1000 S. Buena Vista St., Pomona) for 14U Open, 10U Open and parts of the 11U, 12U and 13U divisions. Across all four sites, the Game Center showed 114 Saturday pool games, with 89 final as of our 7:15 p.m. check.

Sunday, Nov. 8: bracket windows to watch

As of Saturday evening, Sunday brackets were still listed by pool place ("1st Place - Pool A" vs. "4th Place - Pool A" and so on) in the divisions with Corona and Norco teams. The opponents and start times for each local team will not be known until pool play ends and the Game Center fills in the names. Here are the windows the brackets show right now:

• 9U AA (Corona Avengers): both brackets are on the Polo field at BLD Jurupa Valley. Silver bracket games are set for 8 a.m., 10 a.m. and noon; gold bracket games for 2, 4 and 6 p.m.
• 12U AA (Corona Avengers 12u Black): the gold bracket is on Ebbets at BLD Chino Hills from 8 a.m. through a 4 p.m. game. Silver bracket games are on Washington Park Field #4 in Pomona from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and bronze bracket games start at 8 a.m. on Washington Park Fields #2 and #4. Depending on seeding, this team could play Sunday in Chino Hills or Pomona.
• 13U AA (Norco Rough Riders): the gold bracket is on Forbes at BLD Jurupa Valley at 12:30, 2:45 and 5 p.m.; silver is on Pawtucket at BLD Jurupa Valley at 8 a.m., 10 a.m. and noon; bronze is on Fenway at BLD Chino Hills at 2, 4 and 6 p.m. Norco could be at either park Sunday.

Elsewhere, both Big League Dreams parks will stay busy Sunday. Jurupa Valley hosts bracket games for 9U, 10U Open, 11U AA, 12U AAA, 13U AAA and 13U AA. Chino Hills hosts 11U AAA, 11U AA, 12U AA gold, the 13U AAA and 13U AA bronze brackets, both 14U AA brackets and the 14U Open silver bracket. The only division with named Sunday matchups on Saturday night was 10U Open, whose bracket on the Durham field at Jurupa Valley begins at 10:30 a.m.; no Corona-area team is in that division.

Tips for Sunday at the ballpark

• Check the Game Center before you leave. Brackets update after the last Saturday game is scored, and fields can change. Search event ID 418303 or use the link below. USSSA also offers a mobile app.
• Know which park you are going to. Chino Hills (San Bernardino County) and Jurupa Valley (Riverside County) are separate Big League Dreams parks, and some brackets for the same age group are split between them.
• Cleats: USSSA So Cal's event page says metal spikes are not allowed for 12U and younger, are not allowed on turf fields at any location, and are not allowed on portable mounds. That matters on the turf fields: Ebbets and Wrigley at Chino Hills and Forbes and Fenway at Jurupa Valley.
• Bring water and sun protection. Saturday's Corona forecast called for sun and a high near 85 degrees, and bracket days can mean three games in one afternoon.
• Park rules and entry: Big League Dreams sets its own gate, food and cooler policies. Check the individual park's website before you go rather than relying on older tournament notes.
