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. Players older than 15 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.
