The T-Ball games scheduled for Saturday May 4th have been moved to Friday evening beginning at 5:30. Immediately following the third t-ball game stick around to watch the big boys and girls as the Monaca Lions battle Beaver in a Little League contest. Game time at 8:30.

Two winners of the Michael Demarco Scholastic Award were named Saturday during the opening day ceremonies.  Pictured on the left is Brendan Gianatonio and Sean Busby, on the right.  Both players excel in the classroom as well as on the ball field. Congratulations to both!

The 2013 MYBLA Man of the Year award was presented to Mike Samangy on Saturday during the opening day ceremonies.  Mike's contributions over the past ten years as a coach and seven years as an officer are unmeasureable.  He is a tremendous asset to the organization and a well-deserving recipient of the award.  Thanks Mike and congratulations!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Instructions for clearances
In accordance to the by-laws of the Beaver County Youth Baseball League and the MYBLA, head coaches and assistant coaches at all levels are required to have a PA state police criminal background check done in order to be on the field for games or practices. This is also required of coaches in the T-Ball division. We encourage any parent who wishes to be part of a coaching staff to contact their child's head coach for any openings. Click on the link for instructions on how to obtain your clearances. Contact Brad Skrlac or any officer with any questions.

The MYBLA welcomes The Forty Nineteens as our first "Home Run" Sponsor. The Forty Nineteens sound was forged in Detroit and LA's late '80's underground scene. Their music can be desribed as Alt 80's, Garage Rock, Americana, Pop/Punk, with a Motor City powerplant and good-time raucousness. Monaca native and former MYBLA player Nick Zeigler and his fellow band members in California are releasing their debut album No Expiration Date in April. Our thanks to Nick (whose family home overlooked centerfield) and the band for their support. Check out their website at www.thefortynineteens.com.

The MYBLA officers for 2013 are as follows:

President: Brad Skrlac
Vice-President: Darren McKay
Secretary: Mike Samangy
Treasurer: Paul Cain
