MINOR LEAGUE (Entering grades 3 & 4 in September of 2020) – The minor league is the first level of Inter-town competitive play.  Winning and losing are now a reality and championships, trophies for winning teams only and All-Star teams are all in play.  All pitching is done by players and pitching is strictly monitored (i.e. pitch count) for safety.  There is a maximum limit of 12 players on a team. 

All MINOR LEAGUE PLAYERS must be able to:

• Throw and catch a ball from across the diamond (i.e. from 3^rd base to 1^st base)

• Independently demonstrate proper batting mechanics

• Be comfortable in a batter’s box with live pitching from 3^rd or 4^th grade players with pitches ranging from 30-40mph+

RYBS strongly encourages parents to consider another year of Double A for safety reasons and to ensure an enjoyable experience for all players if your child cannot perform at the MINOR level. 

Teams at this level play on fields that have 60-foot base paths.  The pitcher’s mound is a distance of 46 feet from home plate.

This level of play has an emphasis on developing pitchers and catchers and introducing situational baseball for infielders and outfielders.  This level of play also introduces proper batting techniques versus player pitching.  All players at this level should be prepared to start the season having the ability to throw and catch a baseball with proper technique.  

Evaluations may be necessary at this level depending on number of registrants.
