Welcome to the Lambertville - West Amwell Youth Baseball Softball Association (LWAYBSA). We are an all volunteer organization and rely on our registrations fees and our sponsors to ensure our kids are playing at a safe and well maintained facility. Our sponsorships ensure our registration fees are some of the lowest in the area. We also rely on assistance from our local municipalities Lambertville and West Amwell. We have an outstanding relationship with the municipalities and we rely on them quite a bit. Our games are hosted at both Ely Field in Lambertville and Hewitt Field in West Amwell. If you have any questions about your registration, please feel free to email Marc Currie [email protected] .
We look forward to seeing you on the field!
Registration
Please be sure to select the correct Division for your child when registering based on their date of birth.
If you feel the registration site placed your child in the wrong division, please contact the league immediately.
Our divisions are as follows:
6U - Tee-Ball Coed ages 4-6
8U - Baseball
10U - Baseball
12U - Baseball
8U - Softball
10U - Softball
12U - Softball
Example if your son/daughter turn 9 on May 1st or later they are eligible for 8U unless of course their preference and skill level would be to move up. April 31st is the league cutoff. If you son or daughter turns 4 by April 31st they may play tee-ball.
Registration will be closed on February 28th and player evaluations and league drafts will be held the following week. In fairness to the selection process, registrations completed after the March 1st deadline will not be accepted without the prior approval of the respective Division Committee.
Late Fees
Please note that registration is slated to end on February 28. All registrations received after February 28th will be charged a late fee. If your registration is received after March 1st you will be assessed a $20.00 late fee. The primary reason for late fees is driven by uniform orders. We are charged additional rush fees for uniform orders placed after February that the league cannot absorb.
Volunteer Requirements & Buyouts
As an all-volunteer nonprofit organization, LWAYBSA is completely reliant on the volunteerism of our parents to operate the league. As a condition of registering your child with LWAYBSA, parents are required to commit to 6 hours of volunteer time during the season. If you are interested in managing or coaching our kids or joining any of our LWAYBSA operating committees, please let us know by selecting your area of interest during the registration process. Parents have the ability to “buy-out” of their six-hour volunteer responsibility by donating $150 to LWAYBSA during the registration process, and those donations help to offset our expenses for the season. If you have any questions about how you can help LWAYBSA as a volunteer, please feel free to contact Marc Currie.
New Player Recruitment
Please forward this email to your friends and family who have prospective players who are over the age 4 as of April 30th. We also welcome new families and players from neighboring towns.
Financial Assistance
If your family is unable to afford the registration fees due to financial hardship for any of LWAYBSA’s Programs, a limited number of scholarships are available for your child to participate. The number of scholarships is limited each year, based on our financial condition. The process is confidential, and you should contact Marc Currie for additional information.
As always, we appreciate your support of LWAYBSA and look forward to a great season!
