Lewisboro Baseball

Registration for Lewisboro Travel Baseball takes place in the late summer or early fall. This is a two-step, selective process.

Step 1 - Tryouts: First, prospective players register for tryouts, which are held on dates in August - September. There is no fee to participate in tryouts.

The goal is to recruit sufficient players to form several, competitive teams -- ideally 8U-12U -- to compete in the Greater Hudson Valley Baseball League (ghvbl.com). If there is sufficient interest, LBA can support travel teams for age groups above 12U.

Step 2 - Callbacks and Acceptance: After tryouts, parents of the players who demonstrated the most advance baseball skills (or potential for skills development) will receive emails or calls informing them that they player has been offered a spot on a Lewisboro Travel Team. Invitees are then given some period of time (typically 48 hours) to decide whether to accept the officer and pay the associated registration fee. Failure to respond within the stated period can result in the offer being revoked and extended to the next prospective player in line.

LBA Travel Spring/Summer '25

The Lewisboro Travel Baseball program fields teams that are focused on skills development and competitive play. Making a Travel team is a selective process. Prospective players attend try-outs, at which they are evaluated on a range of baseball skills. After the tryouts, teams are formed from players exhibiting the most developed (or, in some cases, potential) baseball skills. The LBA will notify by email those who make the team, and those players will have 48 hours to decide whether to accept.

Not all players have the skills necessary to compete at this level. On occasion, the LBA will accept prospective players from neighboring towns if needed to fill out a competitive team. Those not selected are encouraged to sign-up for our recreational league in the spring and/or our Sandlot programs that are focused on building baseball skills.

Travel baseball is a commitment. Regular attendance at both practices and games is essential. Most teams begin in January with winter indoor practices. Outdoor practice begins as soon as weather conditions allow -- typically in late-March or early April. Spring season games begin in April, and the summer season usually wraps up with playoffs in early August. Teams are limited to 10-12 players to afford each player adequate playing time. But limited rosters also means that no-shows can risk causing a team to forfeit games.

Travel baseball is rewarding and fun. Our Travel baseball program allows kids to play with, and against, the best players in their area and beyond. The longer season, more focused practice sessions, and better equipment / resources all allow for more rapid skills development. Being on a Travel team pushes an athlete to work harder to earn his spot, it inspires players to want to be better by exposing them to robust competition from other towns, and it teaches them to deal with adversity and challenges they may not otherwise encounter.

Lewisboro Travel teams participate in the Greater Hudson Valley Baseball League (see: ghvbl.com). Our opponents are travel teams from towns throughout Westchester, Putnam, Rockland, Dutchess, and Fairfield, CT counties. Typically, our away games are within a 15-45 min drive. But occasionally, Travel teams may participate at tournaments and/or games that are further afield.

Please note: Participation in Lewisboro In-Town recreational program in the spring is MANDATORY for all 8U-12U Travel players. The LBA strives to schedule games and practices to avoid conflicts. However, due to rain-outs or other rescheduling, they can happen from time to time. In that case, a Travel game takes priority.
