What Shoreline Baseball Association does
Mission

We continue that mission today by keeping costs as low as possible with our only focus on player development community and not profits.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Primary mission: the Shoreline Baseball Association (sba), operating teams as the shoreline royals, strives to teach the highest quality level of baseball and teach its atheletes to play the game the right way. The sba works to create a competitive envorionment where players succeed at the highest level of baseball possible; to reinforce that hard work, passion and commitment goes further than just skills alone, and to keep a core group of players together to be teammates and friends up to and beyond high school.2025 accomplishments: the Shoreline Baseball Association specialized in two levels of competitive play in 2025;an 18u college prep team and an underclass 18u development team. These teams competed in both the seattle elite league and various tournaments around the pacific northwest. Notably, the 18u team won 36 games in league play, the second most in program history, and won the elite league championship for a third year in a row. Additionally, the underclass team finished third in the elite league playoffs. Players within the organization received year-around training opportunities which included trainings with college baseball players, mental health training coaches,…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $128k to $57k (−55%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
62% of SHORELINE BASEBALL ASSOCIATION’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (18% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2021 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income rose $44k → $106k.
3 of 3 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of SHORELINE BASEBALL ASSOCIATION’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
SHORELINE BASEBALL ASSOCIATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 83% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund SHORELINE BASEBALL ASSOCIATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2021 100% · 2022 75% · 2023 77% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Where its funders are
100% of SHORELINE BASEBALL ASSOCIATION's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $507k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
