Spartan Youth Club

Spartans will no longer be furnishing team batting helmets. Each child will be required to provide an NOCSAE certified batting helmet. All helmets must be Yellow/Gold and have the Spartan logo. For safety as well as hygiene, we as a board feel it is in the best interests of all that each and every player has their own helmet. These helmets can be purchased at the Spartan Store or any sporting goods store of your choice. You can expect to pay somewhere between $17.00 and $35.00 for a properly approved helmet. The Spartan Store will be selling the helmets for $20.00. The money that the Spartans will save on helmets will be used to provide all teams with other necessary equipment.

Age Cutoff Date for Baseball

Prior to the 2006 baseball season, AYL and Spartan Youth Club adopted the age cutoff change being implemented by most youth baseball organizations. The age cutoff date for AYL is May 1 (the old age cutoff date was August 1).

This change means that all players previously eligible for an age division will still be eligible plus players born in May, June, and July will now qualify for a "younger" age division than they did in the past. For example, to play in the 12u division in 2009, a player can not turn 13 before May 1, 2009.
