YC Youth Baseball offers nine levels of play under the Junior Baseball Organization (JBO) umbrella.  

There are three major divisions, broken down generally as follows:

• Seniors (7th & 8th grade)

• Juniors (5th & 6th grade)

• Miniors (3rd & 4th grade)

 
Within each of the three major divisions there are three skill levels that teams are assigned to:

• Federal (advanced)

• American (above average)

• National

So, a team in the Junior American subdivision is the middle skill level for 5th & 6th grade players. While most players play in their grade-level divisions, age and grade in school are factors in which division your child is eligible to play for.  If your child is exceptionally young or old for their grade level, contact YC Youth Baseball for guidance on selecting the right division.  2nd graders that want to be considered for a competitive JBO team must come to 3rd grade evaluations and will put on the teams if space allows.
