Spring Intramural (In-House) Baseball Program - HYA’s Intramural Baseball Program consists of three (3) separate levels: Pony (equivalent of tee-ball), Minors (coach-pitch) and Majors (“kid-pitch”). These levels are designed for boys ages 5 through 10 either not eligible for HYA’s travel baseball program because of their age or because they were not selected for a travel team. Season begins early April and run through mid June. Practices start in early April. Generally, Minors and Majors will have two (2-3) events per week, which may be on any weeknight or on Saturday, consisting of two (1-2) practices, two (1-2) games, or some combination thereof. Our Pony level will generally have one (1) practice and one game per week. Generally, the Pony practices are scheduled for a weeknight, with the games on Saturday mornings. There will be evaluations for all players that register to play in the Majors level. Evaluations are mandatory (see below for more information).
If your son has a deeper drive to play more competitive baseball, we recommend they try out for our 10U travel baseball program. Our travel teams play against other local teams in the county. Note: travel registration ends early January with tryouts two weeks later, so sign up early. If your child does not make the cut, he will be placed on a Majors team and the difference in the registration fee will be refunded to you.
The success of our baseball program is dependent on parent/guardian participation so please consider helping! We are always in need of Head Coaches, Assistant coaches, or just some willing hands for a few practices.
NOTE: Space is limited and registration may close early depending on participation. Please do not wait until the last minute to register!
Registration will begin in December and run through February 2023. Registration fee includes hat, shirt and socks. Pants are not included but can be purchased for $10 at one of the first practices of the season.
