The Neobaseball Rec Rules are the general rules and guidelines for all the youth baseball leagues, but specifically regular/spring season 9U to 14U age divisions in Northeast Ohio (There are supplemental rules for Tee-ball, Coach-Pitch, Farm, and Fall Ball).   

NOTE: Select/Travel players are not permitted to participate in the Rec division during the Spring season without a signed exemption prior to season (form at bottom of this webpage).

The specifics of Player Eligibility is addressed in the recreational baseball league rules above.  As addressed under "Residency/School Rule", no more than one player shall be from another school system and/or community (local association).   

To clarify, all rec league players must at least either attend the school or live within the township that the team's local association represents (This is NOT a Select division requirement).

For situations where there is an out-of-area player or Travel Exempt Player, a Player Release is required, which are posted below.   

Forms must be thoroughly completed, signed, and submitted to Neobaseball prior to roster turn-in date.  

The Neobaseball  SELECT Division Rules are the general rules and guidelines for the 8U to 14 youth travel baseball leagues during the regular/spring season.  NOTE: Neobaseball Rec players are not permitted to participate in Select/Travel.
