2014 NCBA Division I World Series
The 2014 National Club Baseball Association (NCBA) Division I World Series is being played at University of Tampa Baseball Stadium in Tampa, FL from May 23 to May 29.
Format
The format is similar to the NCAA College World Series in that eight teams participate in two four-team double elimination brackets. There are a few differences between the NCAA and the NCBA format. One of which is that the losers of Games 1-4, 7 and 8 move to the other half of the bracket. Another difference is that the NCBA plays a winner take all for its national title game while the NCAA has a best-of-3 format to determine its national champion.
