One of the most beloved traditions of the PSW Regional Tournament is Pin Trading! Each team brings custom pins representing their league, and players trade with athletes from across the region throughout the week. It's a great way to build friendships, sportsmanship, and a collection of memories.
How It Works:
Each team is encouraged to bring custom pins representing their home league or team
Players trade pins freely during Opening Day, downtime between games, and at designated trading sessions
A dedicated Pin Trading session is held during Opening Day at 2:00 PM in Autograph Alley at Valley Strong Ballpark
We are thrilled to introduce an exciting new tradition this year, Official 2026 PSW Regional Tournament Trading Cards! Each player will have the opportunity to be featured on their very own trading card, and packs will include a special mix of tournament players plus Visalia Rawhide players, our hometown Single-A affiliate of the Arizona Diamondbacks!
Cards will be available for purchase in mixed packs, so every player gets a unique assortment to trade and collect throughout the week. The more you trade, the more complete your collection gets!
How to Get Your Player Card Made: To be included in the 2026 trading card set, each player must submit their information and photo ahead of the tournament. Here's how:
Upload a clear photo of your player in their uniform (head and shoulders, good lighting, no filters)
Submit your player info: Full name, team/league name, and hometown
Deadline to submit: July 1
Submit here: Coming Soon
Players who do not submit before the deadline will not be included in the printed card set.
It has been a long-standing tradition at regional tournaments for players to exchange a small gift with an opposing team player during each pool-play game. This gift does not need to be expensive and typically represents the town/area you are coming from. For example, Visalia is located in an area dominated by the agriculture industry, so our gifts may include fresh fruit from a local farm. This is not a requirement, but since it is tradition, most teams participate. A coach's gift exchange is not necessary but welcome, if available.
