Registration

AGE RULES

When registering your player for the 2008 season, use the age of your child on April 30th to determine the correct age group.

MAINTENANCE FEE

For 2008, we will no longer have a Maintenance fee.  Field maintenance and improvement are RAYBA's means to enhance the playing experience for all of the youth in our organization.  Some of our projects are for safety's sake while some are for improving playing conditions on our ball fields. 

 HOWEVER, because we will have no maintenance fee and no required volunteer hours for each family to perform this year, we will still rely on individuals or families to step up and volunteer.  There will be opportuities to assist in field maintenance during one of three hosted tournaments or work in concessions.  Other volunteer opportunities may become available.  Volunteer opportunities and schedules will be posted on the Volunteer page of this website as the schedule becomes available.  We strongly believe the commitment of many volunteers are what will make our organization strong and successful.  Watch for opportunities for you to contribute your time or skills.
