New This Season! Dibs:

For the 2025 season, we are asking all In House Mahtomedi Youth Baseball families of players who are in 2nd grade or older to volunteer for 2 hours per player.  

Youth Baseball is a nonprofit organization that is run completely by volunteers. It is supported through registration fees, donations, sponsorships, and through revenue generated at its baseball tournaments. We cannot run a successful and cost-efficient program without volunteer support from our members and community. We need your help!

There are two options: 

1) Opt In to the Dibs Volunteer Program - You agree to volunteer 2 hours per 2nd - 9th grade in house player, before 9/1/25. There is a max of 4 hours per family.

2) Opt Out of the Dibs Volunteer Program - You have the option to pay a $150 (plus processing fees) donation, per 2nd - 9th grade player, today, in lieu of volunteering this season.  This donation will be used to hire people for volunteer positions that go unfilled.

*Also New This Season! Rookie Ball: 

For our Kindergarten/1st grade Coach Pitch league, players must be currently enrolled in Kindergarten or 1st grade to participate. Proof of enrollment may be requested. In previous seasons we have seen more and more kids that are not yet in Kindergarten enroll, which limits the opportunity to participate for eligible K/1 players. If a player is interested in baseball, but not yet enrolled in Kindergarten or 1st grade, we would encourage you to register for T-Ball through Mahtomedi Community Education for the spring season. T-Ball will conclude by July 4th and then...come play in our new league...ROOKIE BALL!

Mahtomedi Youth Baseball will now offer Rookie Ball, a 5 week season, which will run Monday & Wednesday nights, from July 7 - August 6. Rookie Ball will be open to players who will be entering Kindergarten,1st or 2nd grade in the fall 2025 school year. Rookie Ball will run opposite nights (M & W) from Sandlot (T & Th). Players entering 2nd grade can choose between playing in Sandlot with hardballs, or in Rookie Ball with the soft-core baseballs we use, depending on their skill level.

MYB hopes that Rookie Ball will provide a chance for younger players to try out T-ball or soccer, or other sports in the spring, and still get to try baseball during the summer. If there are kids in our K/1 Coach Pitch program who just can't get enough baseball and want to play during our 8 week spring season, then also play in our 5 week Rookie Ball season, they are welcome to do so! Registration for Rookie Ball will open in June.
