Frequently Asked Questions of BYB

What is this charge on my credit card from "RegNGIN.Com"

To keep our fees as low as possible, we utilize our software vendor's master merchant account number so the charge on your credit card will not be from BYB.  It will appear as being from "RegNGIN.Com" or "SPORTS REG".

What Day/Time are BYB Games?

T-Ball, Rookie & Minors play two games per week.  Games will be played Sunday - Thursday nights at either 5:30 or 7:30.  The game night and time will most likely be different every week.

Majors also play two games per week.  Games will be played Monday - Thursday nights at either 5:30 or 7:30.  The game night and time will most likely be different every week.

Season start and end dates are posted on the calendar.  Actual team schedules are posted as soon as they are ready, typically in April.

What are the age requirements for BYB?

To play in Bismarck Youth Baseball, the player must be at least 6 years old and no more than 12 years old as of April 30th in the year the season takes place. Division placement is also based on player age as of April 30th.

If they are 5 years old as of April 30th, they are not eligible to play in Bismarck Youth Baseball.

If they are more than 12 years old as of April 30th, they may be able to play Babe Ruth Baseball.  For more information on Babe Ruth Baseball, please contact the Bismarck Parks & Recreation Department.

When are BYB practices?

Practice times are determined by the coaches.  Coaches are chosen after the teams have been created.  Typically the coaches will discuss the practice schedule at the first team meeting.

My children are in the same Division, but different teams.

If you have siblings that are in the same division but on different teams, please let us know asap and we will make every effort to move them to the same team.  This applies to siblings only, not friends, classmates, etc.

When will schedules be completed?

Schedules have to be completed after teams are created. While this is a time consuming process, we try to have them done as soon after as possible. We have an outline as to when the season begins and ends, whether we will play the week of Memorial Day or Independence Day and the outline of the end of season tourneys.

My child is not playing with his school mates

We have such a large number of players in our program (800+) and it is extremely difficult to place all schoolmates together while trying to have a good blend of age groups. While we would like to place all players where and with whom they like, it is impossible. Rather than mixing all players in a division, we attempt to give returning players preferred placement and filling in the teams with moving up players and then new players. The following year when our new players are returning players, they will be redistributed to play with schoolmates if possible.

If we choose not to play, can we have a refund?

BYB tries its hardest to place all players that want to play, however due to limited field space, we may have to turn some players away. If we have been able to place your child on a team, and your child chooses not to play before the refund deadline you will be eligible for a refund.  No refunds will be given after the refund deadline.  Check the calendar for these dates.

Can my son/daughter "play up" a league?

No, Bismarck Youth Baseball does not allow players to "play up" in the next league for any reason.  They will be assigned a league based on their age as of April 30th.
