2025 AGE AND PLAY UP/PLAY DOWN POLICY
AGE POLICY
Yellow Springs Youth Baseball is designed for players ages seven to 15, with a player's age determined by their age on August 31, 2025.
Players who are older or younger than the league age cutoffs may participate only if invited and/or approved by the appropriate division commissioner. For example, six-year-old players may participate if they are skilled and mature enough to be good teammates and are approved by the Minors division commissioner. Sixteen-year-old players may only participate if invited by the Majors division commissioner and judged to be at the same skill, maturity, and/or grade level as their peers in the Majors division.
PLAY UP/PLAY DOWN POLICY
Players may "play up" or "play down" in a division different than their age group only by invitation of the division commissioner to which they are moving.
