The 2026 CIAC baseball tournament will take place over a three‑week stretch, beginning on May 30 and culminating with the championship games on June 12‑13. Four divisions — Large‑League (LL), Large (L), Medium (M) and Small (S) — will each follow a similar progression, from first‑round contests through semifinals and ultimately the title games.
First‑round games for all classes are slated for June 1 at 3:30 p.m., hosted at the higher‑seeded schools’ home fields. This includes LL, L, M and S matchups, each awaiting results that will be posted nightly.
Advancing teams will reconvene on June 2 for second‑round action, also at 3:30 p.m., before quarterfinal play on June 6 and semifinals on June 9 at a yet‑to‑be‑announced neutral venue.
The tournament’s final chapter arrives at Palmer Field in Middletown, where championship games for every division will be contested on June 12 and June 13.
