May my son who is playing Rec ball at NYSA also play Travel ball on another team? Short answer, Yes! Our main concern at NYSA is safety of the players. Our only request with a player that is playing both Travel Ball and Rec Ball is clear communication. Healthy players are happy players and we would love to see all of our player be able to continue to grow and excel in the NYSA program.
