May my son who is playing Rec ball at NYSA also play Travel ball on another team? We provide Select Teams at each age division to provide a higher competitive experience for our players which is fully integrated in our Rec program. The focus is on player development and safety as pitch count rules are used for both Rec and Select play to protect our player's young arms. Therefore, we do not allow our registered players to play on outside travel ball teams as this may put the player's health at risk. Please contact the Baseball Commissioner for guidance if you have any questions regarding this rule.
