Legion Post 2 15U-18U

***Home of the 2025 American Legion Minnesota State Champions***

The Shakopee Post 2 Legion baseball program encompasses 2-3 teams, at both the Senior and Junior Levels, with players aged from 15 to 18 years old. We are sponsored by Shakopee American Legion Post 2 and serve the players within the Shakopee School District. Each team competes in an area Junior or Senior Legion league, weekend in-state and out-state tournaments, and the Legion Sub-State and State Tournaments.


Highlights for 2026

For 2026, the Shakopee Legion baseball program will have one Senior legion team (Ages 15-18) and two Junior Legion teams (Ages 15-17).

Ages

The Shakopee American Legion baseball program is for players ages 15 through 18. 

Team Selection Process

Legion team player placement is based on the players’ spring High School baseball performance and are put together by the Shakopee High School head coach. 

Games & Practices

Each legion team will play between 30-40 games, depending on performance. Home games and practices are held at Joe Schelper Stadium, Stemmer Field, or Tahpah West. Practices will begin after the high school season is complete, with games being played in June and July. Players can expect 1-2 practices per week.
