The term Select, Tournament and Travel are used interchangeably. Most people use TB as a term to say your are not a REC Ball or All Star team.
Simply pay insurance to whatever (USA, PGF, USSSA, USFA, etc) organization and sign up for their tournaments. If you travel outside of your area or stay local, no one outside of your team cares.
