Our Summer Baseball Program is a highly competitive offering and teams will be constructed of the most advanced and skilled ERBL baseball players. As a competitive program, there may be tryouts and/or cuts to form our rosters.  Please note that this registration is for interest only and no fee will be accepted at this time.  Once the rosters are formed then the fee will be billed.

Registration - Runs through April 14, 2023 with the summer season starting with Memorial Day tournaments. Please note that this is a hard deadline and no registrations will be accepted after this date. It is recommended that you register your child ASAP to avoid any registration issues that may arise.  Go to 2023 ERBL Summer Baseball Registration Link to register.

Evaluations - Depending on registration numbers at each age group level, team placement will be based on performance at the spring evaluation session (if necessary), performance thus far this spring and historical coach knowledge along with recommendations. In the event that it is necessary to cut a player, registration fee will not be charged.

Age Groups - ERBL will look to field competitive teams at all levels and will be done according to the player’s Cal Ripken Age (see below).

Eligibility – In order to register, your child must participate in the 2023 ERBL Spring in-house season.

Cost - (Roughly $375) – The registration fee covers the cost of a jersey, hat and batting helmet.  The fee also covers the Memorial Day tournament and the district tournament (and states, if made).  The teams will also play in a Cal Ripken summer league which consists of approximately 20 games throughout the summer.  Any tournaments at any level outside of what is included must be covered by the families that are participating.
