The American Baseball Coaches Association and Rawlings Sporting Goods have announced the 2021 High School Gold Glove Team. High school selections were delayed due to varying start dates throughout the country from COVID-19 protocols. The
2021 Gold Glove Awards for each collegiate division were announced in July.
The ABCA/Rawlings Gold Glove Awards are selected by the ABCA High School All-America and Coach of the Year Committee. The first ABCA/Rawlings Gold Glove teams were recognized in 2007, making this the 14th year the Rawlings Gold Glove Awards have been presented in the collegiate and high school ranks.
The ABCA/Rawlings Award Program is one of the most comprehensive in all of sports, awarding All-America Teams and Gold Glove Teams in nine divisions of amateur baseball as well as All-Region Teams in five divisions.
Founded in 1945, the American Baseball Coaches Association is the primary professional organization for baseball coaches at the amateur level. Its over 13,000 members represent all 50 states and 25 countries. Since its initial meeting of 27 college baseball coaches in June 1945, Association membership has broadened to include eight divisions: NCAA Division I, II and III, NAIA, NJCAA, Pacific Association Division, High School and Youth.
