Player Eligibility:

To be eligible to participate as a player in MYO, the individual must live within the boundary of the Mason City School District or attend a Mason City school.  Exceptions will require majority approval by the Board of Directors.

Registration Period:

The registration period each year begins in early December and continues through the end of January.  Late registrations will be taken in February through the middle of April (once teams have begun to practice), but MYO cannot guarantee that there will be an available spot to place your child.  Note, there is a $10 late charge for late registrations.  If we cannot place your child on a team, we will refund the registration fee.

Season:

MYO practices begin the first week of April and games begin the first week of May.  Regular season games end at the end of June and will be followed by a tournament for all leagues except Tee Ball and Slow Pitch-F.  The tournament occurs the week immediately after the regular season ends.  Our objective is to have the season (including tournament) completed prior to the Fourth of July holiday.

Coaches:

See the Coaches page on this web site for more details.

Leagues:

See the Leagues page on this web site for more details.

Rules:

MYO publishes its own rulebook in order to make the game appropriate for the age levels that play in our organization.  Refer to the Rules page on this web site for more details.

Fields:

See the Fields page on this web site for more details.

Monthly Meetings:

MYO holds a general meeting the first Thursday of every month at the Mason Municipal Building (across from the Community Center at 6000 Mason-Montgomery Rd.).  Meetings generally start at 7:00 pm.  Any time changes will be posted on the web site home page.  All are welcome. 

Volunteers:

With the exception of the paid umpires, MYO is an all volunteer organization.  Most of our Board members have full-time jobs and work hard in their “spare time” to organize a baseball/softball season for the youth of Mason.  All of our coaches are volunteers.  If you would like to get involved in MYO please attend a meeting or call the MYO voice mail line.
