All Star class teams are rec ball teams, not travel ball teams.
Rookie class teams are start-up and rec ball type teams.
American class teams are average travel ball teams (similar to C class teams in other organizations) and not quite at the elite level of their age division.
National class teams are above average travel ball teams (similar to B class teams in other organizations) and compete on a higher level than American class teams.
Elite class teams are the "cream of the crop" in their respective age division (similar to A class teams in other organizations).
