Bellingham Youth Baseball

Welcome to Bellingham Youth Baseball!

 

We are excited to begin our new season for youth baseball in Bellingham! We field spring teams from ages 4 through 18, plus we have a summer camp and spring training for our younger players. We also have a Challenger division for special needs players ages 4 - high school/22 and have a ton of events throughout the season for community fun. Our Board of Directors and coaches are volunteers who love to help our players be the best they can be and have fun doing it.

Our Program


Our registration is 100% online, but if you have any questions, please reach out to Board President Kerry Farrell at [email protected]. You need to create an account on this website in order to register (one account per family - you can add multiple children to one account). After you create your account, you will be able to register for a program based on the ages of your players.

If you are interested in playing baseball for the first time and you are not from Bellingham, please reach out to Kerry Farrell at [email protected]. If you are a first time player, please upload a copy of your player's birth certificate.

Some of our Fun Stuff...


We are very proud of our Concession Stand - lots of treats, hearty meals, our awesome slushes, plus Linda's Famous Specials are always a great reason to stop by while you're watching a game. We are able to provide items at very low cost because of all the help we receive from our volunteers and players. When you register online, you will notice we ask all players to help out at the Concession Stand for two hours one time throughout the season. The player cannot do it; the player must be represented by a parent or an adult over 18. Concession stand duty will be assigned in February/March and you will receive ample notice. If the timing does not work for you, you will be able to reschedule with our Concession Director.

We also ask our players to participate in the Calendar Fundraiser that is held in June. At their Meet the Coach or Evaluations, players will receive an envelope of calendars to sell for cash prizes. We ask each player sell at least five; they can sell more if they want. If someone you sell a calendar to wins, so do you! It's a great fundraiser and gives us the income we need to take care of our fields, uniforms, insurance, and so many things that come with running a program that fields over 500 players every year. The calendars are due by the first week in May and the daily cash prizes begin June 1st.

Every year we have fun events down at the field, including the Homerun Derby, Family Field Day, plus tournaments and more. We are always looking for volunteers, so please let us know what you would like to help with! We have Spring, Summer and Fall programs at BYBI, plus Batter Up Summer Camp for players aged 7-14.
