What is my son or daughters "League Age" and why is it important?

League age is a players age as of a specific calendar date during the year of play (August 31st for TBall, April 30th for Baseball, and January 1st for Softball). A players league age may not reflect their actual age at the time of registration, and as such can often times lead to confusion regarding what level a child can play at or if a parent should even sign their child up to play at all.

GYBSL follows the Age Requirements set forth by Babe Ruth Baseball and Babe Ruth Softball. A breakdown of League Ages can be found in the links below:

Softball:

It is important to note that for T-Ball, any player that will turn 4yo on or before August 31, 2023 can play this season. This allows older 3yos the ability to play ahead of turning 4yo.
