New for 2018

We're please to announce we've brought back baseball to the older age groups once again.

This year we've added our Pony League, which will allow up to 15 year olds to play recreational baseball.  This league will play with other area recreation leagues to provide a larger variety of competition for our participants.

As a result we've had to alter the ages for all our participants in the Minors, Majors, and Pony League.  Starting this year the Minors will service all 9-10 year olds, the Majors will service all 11-12 year olds, and the Pony League will service 13-15 year olds.  

We will of course allow some exceptions with the ages in each league based on athletism, skill level, and competitiveness.  Please contact worthingtonbaseball@gmail.com for any concerns to these changes and for guidance on exceptions.

Thanks.  And....PLAY BALL!!!

Only small barrel bats (2 1/4 ") are permitted in the WYB Recreation baseball league.  Big Barrel bats (2 5/8 " or 2 3/4 ") are prohibited due to player safety.

If players violate this rule, they will be ejected from the game.

It will be the coaches responsibility to assure that their players are using "legal" bats.

Through the link at the top of this page (Documents) you can access several key documents: WYB Coaching Principles, an umpire application, information about umpire training, three codes of conduct, one each for parents, players and coaches, and a list of approved composite bats. Please familiarize yourself with the documents that are relevant to you. WYB expects all coaches, players and family members to conduct themselves appropriately at all WYB events. We are all role models for every child we encounter.

Please visit each division for specific information about that division. Various documents relevant to each division will be available there.

The WYB Baseball Program is looking for dedicated volunteers to help us enhance our program. Please contact us at   if you can help and thank you in advance!
