BYBL Spring Baseball For the 2016 season, registration begins online starting in November, 2015, and in-person registration begins in January 2016.

More information can be found at www.bybl.org.

BYBL “Rampage” Travel Baseball Bolingbrook Youth Baseball League is proud to announce that the spring 2016 season will be the seventh season for Rampage Baseball, our full-time travel baseball program. We intend to have travel teams for 8U-15U (birth date as of April 30th, 2016). Tryouts for Rampage Baseball will be in late July and early August.

Check www.bybl.org for exact dates.

For “Frequently Asked Questions” about our program, go to the “FAQs” link on our Rampage Baseball website: www.bolingbrookrampage.com Contact Jason Stoddard, Travel Director, at rampage@bybl.org for more information.

Play HARD! Play SMART! Play RAMPAGE! Frequently Asked Questions Who is BYBL? BYBL is the local chapter of PONY Baseball, Inc. (Protect Our Nation’s Youth) and a member of the Greater DuPage PONY Baseball Association (GDPBA). PONY believes that rather than change the rules of the game to make it possible for young people to play, it is better to change the size of the playing fields and to adjust them to the potential of the players. For our Pinto and Mustang divisions (youngest players) they are taught fundamentals from the start, in a controlled environment that allows them to learn, while enhancing their skills, and still play real baseball too.

What are the advantages of BYBL? Authentic baseball rules right from the start, allowing both windup and stretch pitching, lead-offs and base stealing – all skills players will need as they advance.

What fundamentals are taught?

Coaches work with the kids on how to pitch and catch, the fundamentals of fielding, batting, lead-offs, and stealing. They are taught how to play real baseball.

What gives BYBL a big game feel?

Some of our fields are lighted allowing evening games, and some feature raised mounds for a more authentic experience, grass (as opposed to dirt) infields, electronic scoreboards and nearby travel for away games for the older kids in the Spring, which helps build team spirit and prepare players for the future.

My child was in Tee-ball/Coach-pitch last year, what next?

You’ve come to the right place. Most all of the kids in BYBL started in the tee-ball league and may have played in coachpitch. Either the Pinto or the Mustang division is where your child would play. w w w . b o lbi on lgi nbgr boroo ko pk pa ar rkkss..oo rr g

81

Is there a lot of travel involved?

No. Most Pinto and Mustang division games are played in Bolingbrook. Bronco through Palomino divisions travel to neighboring communities for away games.

Are uniforms included in the registration fees?

Yes. All players will receive a complete uniform including pants, socks, jersey and hat. Pinto, Mustang, Bronco and Pony age players receive MLB replica uniform jerseys and caps.

Are families required to participate in fundraising during the spring season?

Candy sales are offered to help offset some of the registration costs of playing spring baseball and to help keep the cost of playing affordable. One of the main benefits of our sale is that BYBL only asks families to sell candy per family (not sell boxes for each child playing). Families also have the option to buy-out and not sell the candy.

BYBL Divisions BYBL Pinto Division: Ages 7 and 8 The Pinto division is intended for 7 and 8 year old players that want to take the next step after playing coach-pitch or tee-ball.

Children will begin to learn the whole game of baseball. They will begin to learn how to pitch from the wind-up and stretch, catch, steal bases, play the outfield, hit the cutoff man, defend the steal, acknowledge base signs, and turn the double play. For this age player, the base path is set at 50 ft., and they pitch from 38 ft.

The Pinto Division is intended to be an instructional league, but season standings are kept and there is post-season play resulting in a Pinto champion.

All players have equivalent playing time, and rules are in place for younger pitchers to allow them opportunity as well. In Pinto, children can expect to play approximately 14-16 games each spring season and all games are completed prior to the 4th of July, leaving family summer vacations intact. Uniforms are provided: MLB replica jersey and cap, pants and socks.

All Pinto games are played right here in Bolingbrook. This is an extremely fun age for children’s baseball as they develop and refine baseball skills and learn to “think” the game of baseball.
