Releases


Players residing in Burlington and interested in trying out with another organization must follow BOMBA and COBA release policies.

 

8U to 11U

  • Release requests must be sent to: rep@baseballburlington.com
  • A release will only be provided after a player has been released from all Burlington tryout levels (AAA, AA, A, DS, where applicable)
  • If a player is offered a spot on any Bulls team, a release will not be granted
  • Coaches cannot issue releases. Requests must go through the Rep Director
  • Burlington residents cannot try out for another association without a release, regardless of current team status

 

Non-COBA Teams (i.e. Hamilton)

  • A release is required from both BOMBA and COBA to try out in a non-COBA city.

 

OBA HPP teams (new 2027) for ages 12U to 18U

A release is not required to attend declared HPP or EBLO team tryouts

 

12U & 13U - non OBA HPP teams

  • Players not attending Burlington tryouts and planning to try out with another COBA organization must request a release from BOMBA
  • A release will be provided upon request

 

COBA Policy

COBA allows players in certain age groups to try out for other COBA teams without a release.

  • If a player receives an offer from another COBA team, BOMBA will provide a release
  • Permitted age groups may change, refer to the COBA website for current details

Important Notes

  • Burlington residents trying out for non-COBA organizations (ie, Hamilton) require a release from both BOMBA and COBA (excluding EBLO, 12U HPP, 13UHPP and 14UHPP)
