Above is a .pdf copy of the League Schedule as of Feb 23, 2021. We have done a lot of review to ensure the accuracy of the schedule. Please understand that we will continue to modify this schedule as necessary to ensure accuracy.
This is just a preliminary copy for your reference.
We are working to get this schedule uploaded to the individual team pages and hope to have that completed in the next couple of days.
We hope this advance copy, provide more than 4 weeks before our start date, is helpful.
If you have any questions related to the schedule please send a message to sharpsburgbaseball@gmail.com.
Fields will be reviewed daily (Weekdays between 3:00 and 4:00 pm) and (weekends prior to 0900) to ensure they are dry enough to play. Fields will be closed any time there is a weather warning in effect in the county. Fields will be closed when the wind chill temperature is below 40 degrees. If you have any questions about Field Status, please reach out to one of the Executive Board Members or Becky Whitman.
In the event, Rain has occurred in the past 24 hours or the fields were "CLOSED" the previous day, the Field Status will show as "PENDING". until an SYB Board Member can check the Park.
We want to take a moment and send a HUGE shout out to our friends at GO CHURCH for opening their facilities to our League and families yesterday to support our tryouts. We can not thank Pastor JC Worley and David Zuccala enough for making this possible. This was by far one of the most successful tryouts we have held in a long time.
We also want to thank our partners MPH Throwing Academy for running a very smooth tryout for our players. Their professionalism gave our players the best opportunity to "show their best" to our volunteer coaches.
*14U and 18U will be scheduled at a later date as we always give High School players more time to accommodate school baseball. Tell your friends to get signed up now!
As always, please check www.sharpsburgbaseball.com or our FaceBook page for the latest information.

C. SYB INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY SYB INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY will apply to all SYB Practices, Scheduled Games or Tournaments
The cold weather policy is fairly straight forward: If the “feels like temperature" is below 40 degrees during any game play or practice times we will not permit players on the fields. SYB will make every effort to make decisions related to this policy as far in advance as possible on game days & for practice times.
Umpires, Coaches and League Officials shall monitor for the signs indicating that thunderstorm are developing. Since the average distance between successive lightning flashes is approximately two to three miles, ANYTIME that lightning can be seen or thunder is heard, the risk is already present. If lightning is imminent or a thunderstorm is approaching, all personnel, athletes and spectators shall evacuate to available safe structures or shelters.
WHAT SHOULD I DO AS A COACH, PARENT OR PLAYER IF IT IS RAINING?
The most important thing a Coach, Player or Parent you can do if it is raining outside is be patient. SYB will make every effort within reason to play all games as scheduled.
In the event it is raining outside, SYB will make every effort to evaluate the fields by 4:00 pm on the day of the event. Please monitor the website for the latest information. It will always be the first think we update in the events of a cancellation.

Parents, Players and Coaches,
Now that the season is underway, we wanted to ask that you continue to remember the following items of concern so we can all enjoy the season.
First off, we want to give a shout-out to our concessionaire, Brenda Kay, for the great work she and her team of helpers have done the last few seasons and continues to do for our families this season. They work hard keeping the concession stands stocked, grilling burgers and hot dogs, and then working during the games so you, the parents, can watch your kids play ball instead of having to take turns working in the concession stand.
In order to ensure the success of our concession stand, the SYB Board is asking that you please do NOT bring outside food into the park. We invite you to enjoy the food they sell in the concession stand... see below for the menu! The more we can support the concession stands, the better chance we have of keeping them each season. One cooler per team is allowed for after game drinks and snacks... With that being said, we have worked out a deal with the concession stand where you can purchase after game drinks and a snack for $2 a player. This will eliminate each parent having to remember to buy drinks and snacks and then lug a cooler to the game. If you choose to do this, please let them know ahead of time so they can be prepared. They can be emailed at sybfood@gmail.com.

Please ensure your players are disposing of their gum properly. No one should be discarding their gum onto the ground ANYWHERE. Please remind them to throw it in a trash can. If they are seen discarding it onto the ground they will be asked to pick it up and discard it properly.
We know that there is a limited number of parking space. It is something we try to take into consideration when making the schedules, but sometimes, mainly on Saturdays, there are a lot of folks coming in and out of the park. Please obey the law and use the Stop Signs as they are posted and DO NOT park in a handicap spot illegally. Also, use some common sense. Try not to cross the line and take up two spots and if you are going to jump the curbs, be careful and do not block someone else in. See below for some good examples of how NOT to park.
Sorry for the "RULES" email, but we want to make sure everyone is aware so that we can all enjoy our time at the park.
Hope everyone has a great season!
Thanks,
SYB Board of Directors.
