BOYS MOSQUITO DIVISION

House League is the foundation of RYBL, and we welcome a wide range of abilities. From beginners of organized baseball, to players that have started as early as T-Ball, we are always excited to see kids out playing ball! This is the first level where a player receives a live pitch from the opposing team. Emphasis is placed on skills development, strategy, position playing, sportsmanship, team play and FUN.

UMPIRING

This is a great age to start umpiring and learning the game of baseball from a different perspective. A perfect part time job to balance with playing the sport along with school & any other activities. If your player is interested in umpiring this season, please contact our Umpire In Chief at uic@rybl.com.

COACHING VOLUNTEERS

RYBL is the best youth baseball association in Etobicoke because of the dedication of its Coach Volunteers. Please consider expressing your interest in coaching or assisting in your player’s registration application.

All coaches are supported with initial training and continuous group communication to ensure you and your team’s success on the field.

If you are open to the possibility of coaching, even as an assistant, and have questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out!

PLAY WITH REQUESTS

Please note that only “reciprocal” play-with requests will be considered, per the play-with policy on the RYBL Website, if received prior to April 1.

This means that if your player would like to play with another child, he/she must select that player on their Registration, and vice-versa.

Multiple play-with requests and non-reciprocal play-with requests will NOT be considered.

Reciprocal play with requests will ONLY be considered for players registered for the same program (e.g., spring/fall OR spring/summer/fall).

Thank you for your interest in RYBL.

Please reach out if you have any questions.
