2024 Summer House League Registration is CLOSED
A registration is not considered final and accepted until the registration fee is paid in full. (See also NSF Cheques and Refund Requests)
PLAYER REQUESTS
Historically BOMBA has tried to meet the individual requests of players to be on the same team as their friends or to have a specific coach. Our registrants, or the parents of our registrants, have expressed that they place a much greater value on team / division balance and consequently BOMBA WILL NOT attempt to meet individual player requests above the entry levels (Junior T-Ball, Senior T-Ball, and Junior Coach Pitch).
Friend/Coach requests at the entry levels of Junior T-Ball, Senior T-Ball and Junior Coach Pitch are to be made by e-mail to the appropriate division convenor. Please note that in the case of friend requests, only one friend request will be considered per player and the request must be sent by e-mail from the parents/guardians of both players, confirming that the request is mutual.
Coaches / Managers will still be assured of having their child on the team they coach/manage. Please Note: A Vulnerable Screening Police Clearance, issued within the past 2 calendar years, IS REQUIRED for all coaches/managers. A copy, with the seal visible, must be provided to BOMBA's Administrator prior to the start of the season.
REFUND POLICY
If for any reason you choose to withdraw your child from registration prior to the season commencement there will be a $50 processing fee subtracted from your refund. Any refund requested after season commencement will have a $50 processing fee deducted and 50% of the registration fee will be withheld to cover the costs incurred for uniforms, equipment, diamonds, umpires etc. Season commencement is considered to be April 1st, as team formations begin at that time.
NSF CHEQUES
BOMBA will charge a $45 administration fee for NSF cheques. If a cheque is rejected at any time, the child is not considered registered until payment is received by BOMBA.
NUMBER OF GAMES
Due to many factors BOMBA cannot guarantee the number of games your child will play in any season. Factors such as weather, diamond availability, number of registrants, umpire availability, holidays, or any other unforeseen issues such as power failure cutting off night lighting will all impact the number of games we can achieve.
GAME NIGHTS
All levels will be scheduled to play twice per week on the same nights/days weekly:
*BOMBA will do everything within our control to keep game nights/days consistent, however they may be subject to change on occasion based upon City diamond availability which is a factor beyond our control.
PRACTICES
Each team in the 7U and above divisions will have a 2 hour practice time slot once a week with at least one other team. Practices will be scheduled on either Saturday or Sunday throughout the season. Specific days and times will be assigned prior to the start of the season and will be determined subject to diamond availability.
SEASON START AND FINISH DATES
It is BOMBA’s goal to start our summer baseball season play for the divisions 7U HL and older the second week of May and conclude the season in late July/early August. The entry level divisions (Jr. & Sr. T-Ball and Junior Coach Pitch) and Challenger Baseball traditionally start playing after the Victoria Day long weekend and conclude their season with Fun Day, on July 27, 2024.
PARENTS / GUARDIANS RESPONSIBILITIES
Parents/Guardians are responsible to ensure that a player is in good health and has sufficient medical coverage, over and above the minimal insurance provided to the Association.
Parents/Guardians are responsible to purchase and ensure that the player wears the appropriate protective gear (i.e. jock or jill), when participating in all athletic events.
FOOTWEAR
At all levels of House League play athletic running shoes are acceptable. If the registrant chooses to wear baseball shoes metal cleats are not allowed until the level of Bantam.
BASEBALL GLOVES
Baseball gloves for all players are the responsibility of the Parent / Guardian to supply. Catcher’s Equipment will be supplied by BOMBA, one to a team.
BATTING HELMETS
Batting Helmets for all players are the responsibility of the Parent / Guardian to supply and are not to be shared.
