Lake City Youth Softball Baseball Association

Baseball

Boys ages 7-15 – starts in mid-late May – ends in mid-late July.

Most teams participate in The Zumbro Valley League which is based out of Southeastern Minnesota and features multiple age divisions. The league consists of 20+ associations and is broken out into regional divisions of 6-8 teams per division. Teams will play 12-14 game regular season schedule and a double-elimination post-season tournament.

Teams at the 8 and under level will compete in the Winona County Youth Baseball League which is a developmental league that utilizes a mechanical pitching arm to simulate live pitching. This league has other area towns in it that we will travel to (and they will travel here).  Some of them may include Dover-Eyota, St. Charles, Chatfield, Lewiston, Altura, Rollingstone, Minnesota City, Goodview, and Ridgeway.  This league sets the schedule and the nights that games are played.  Typically, practices/games are held on Tuesdays or Thursdays, but there may be slight changes depending on field availability and coaches’ discretion.  Game times are typically around 6:30 pm.  We expect the first games to be the week of May 31st and the last games the end of July.

At all levels you can expect to have at least one game night per week, at least one practice night per week, but may be more than that when the season is in full swing, especially at the older levels. Each coach will get their schedule planned and communicated as soon as they have it. Coaches try to remain consistent each week with what nights are scheduled but may have to deviate based upon field availability and weather.

Roster Sizes

To ensure a positive experience for all players, we aim to keep team roster sizes at around 13 players. This allows for ample playing time and development opportunities for everyone.If registration numbers exceed expectations, we may need to organize tryouts to appropriately place players and adjust roster sizes as necessary. Our goal is to create balanced teams while ensuring every participant has the opportunity to play and improve. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to provide the best experience for all players.
