LSYBA Travel Baseball

LSYBA is proud of our strong community based baseball program. In addition to our in-house program, LSYBA offers a full travel schedule option to 9-15 year old kids. Travel baseball is an extensive commitment and families need to consider all aspects of this commitment carefully before making the decision between in-house vs. travel. Travel baseball requires commitment from players, coaches, and parents, from April through July, and possibly into early August. Every player’s presence is important and the player is expected to make every effort to attend all practices, league games, and tournament games. Unexcused and/or excessive absences will result in a reduction of playing time and may result in dismissal from the team. This should only be considered for kids who are most serious about baseball and can commit to the schedule.

Travel Baseball Teams

PWYBA will field travel teams at the 9U–15U age levels.

At most age levels, our goal is to form:

• One AAA team (most competitive)
• One or two AA teams
• One or two A teams

NEW for 2026:

PWYBA plans to offer a 9A travel team in addition to 9AAA and 9AA. The Metro Baseball League is adding a 9A level for 2026, which allows us to provide this new option for our 9U players.

PWYBA strives to have as many kids playing travel baseball as possible while ensuring they are placed at an appropriate competitive level. Being appropriately placed is important for player development, team success, and continued enjoyment of the sport. The number of AA and A teams may increase or decrease each year based on the following factors:
