April 7, 2021 - The weather is beautiful and we are inching closer to the season. The April 7 Stay-At-Home order means April tryouts are postponed. Fortunately, rosters have been filled through previous March tryouts with spots remaining for only a couple talented Catchers or Pitchers. There will be one May tryout if needed, if permitted. As with all outdoor team sports, the season will begin when local municipalities move into the 'Orange' zone. This timing may impact the current May 8 start date by a few weeks. First block of the Regular Season schedule (May-July) will be published this week as planned, however all impacted May games will susequently be rescheduled in the second block or on a later date. Teams will resume practices after May 6 and when safe to do so. 

Stay tuned for more updates, for questions email info@yrmbl.com!
