Registration for the 2018 Boys Summer Travel Season is now live. Click on the link below to register now to avoid roster spot issues. This is the only way to guarantee your child a spot and that he will not become a victim of the numbers.
Also, if you have any questions, please communicate directly with a Board member, your League Director or your son's HEAD coach. We will all be happy to provide the information that you need or can find out the answer.
When you do register, read the entire prologue in detail. It contains important information regarding birthdates (particularly for 12U), an 11U Select tournament and the somewhat unique situation that 10U Select is in this season.
Please see below for the 2018 Finch Park Snack Stand schedule. For any snack stand questions, please email rbsastand@gmail.com.
Please note that each family only has one volunteer shift throughout the season and a program this size requires participation from all of our families.
Please closely review the schedule or work out substitute arrangements directly with another parent(s) to switch should scheduling conflicts arise.
Thank you very much for your cooperation in helping to operate the snack stand for all of our players, families and RBSA supporters!
We want to make sure all baseball parents are aware of the new bat standards this year. Most of the major Youth baseball leagues in the US including Little League and Babe Ruth have adopted a unified Bat standard called the USA Bat Standard. The RBSA is following that standard for our leagues from Tiny Tim 8 through Babe Ruth. All bats that do not have the USA BAT Logo will not be allowed this year. The only bats that contain this new logo are 2018 model year bats, so if you have a bat from last year, it is no longer eligible. We have posted information about the new bat standard on our website.
Again, only new 2018 bats with the USA Bat logo are legal this year in TT8 through Babe Ruth. Teeball and Clinic can use bats from previous years. Additionally, for all Babe Ruth participants, please note that BBCOR .5 bats are legal this year in Babe Ruth only. Also note that single piece Wood Bats are Legal across all leagues. Rules on Softball bats have not changed from past years. Please contact me (Shawn Kirk @ skirk@extelldev.com) with any questions regarding this new bat standard and how it applies to your child.

Interscholastic and youth sports programs play an important role in promoting the physical, social and emotional development of children. It is therefore essential for parents, coaches and officials to encourage youth athletes to embrace the values of good sportsmanship. Moreover, adults involved in youth sports events should be models of good sportsmanship and should always lead by example by demonstrating fairness, respect and self-control.
