NEW!!! 2024 Spring Recreational Baseball League (12-15 years old)

In our new spring league, 13 and 14 year old players can experience the joys of playing on a full-sized ball field with their peer group. 12-year-olds who will be finishing their final year in Little League are eligible to register in the MCSLBA spring league as well (our game schedule will be compatible with BJLBA). 15-year-olds not playing high school baseball are also welcome to register.

Spring league details: Skills evaluation in late March. Practices begin in early April, with official games starting in mid-April (Tuesday and Thursday evenings) and ending in late May. Spring league participants will be encouraged to continue playing in our regular MCSLBA summer rec league (see below). Game and practice schedules are travel-ball friendly.

To speak with the league about late registration, contact technologist@mcslba.org.

MCSLBA provides opportunities for youth and young adults ages 12-18 to play baseball in an
organized manner, under the instruction and supervision of qualified coaches. MCSLBA fosters
development of athletic skill and a sense of citizenship, sportsmanship, and fair play.
Participation is open to all residents of Monroe County and neighboring counties. Information
about registration fellowships available upon request.

Our goal, as an organization, is to provide young adults the opportunity to stay involved in organized baseball while further developing both as athletes and as people. We provide a firm and supportive environment, which encourages continual learning while building self-confidence and self-esteem. We stress throughout the league the teaching of fundamentals, sportsmanship, and express the fun of the great game of baseball.

In the minor division we introduce the ballplayer to a regulation field, while limiting the age gap leading to a competitive and comfortable environment where the ballplayer can work on the finer nuances of the game. In the major division we continue to provide the recreational ballplayer and high school ballplayer alike an opportunity to continue to play the game in a fun and competitive environment.

We understand that one can get caught up in the competition aspect of the sport. But, the first law of sports participation is that it is supposed to be a fun, rewarding and a learning experience. We want our players to get the most from their baseball experience.

Everything we as the Officers, and hopefully everything that you do will support these goals and the mission statements of MCSLBA Baseball. So on behalf of the MCSLBA, we look forward to the opportunity to provide you and/or your child with a quality and enjoyable baseball experience. See you at the ballpark.

On Behalf of the Officers,

Patrick Dove
