Hello CYB Families,

As the cases of COVID-19 in San Diego County and Carlsbad continue to increase, it is important now more than ever to safeguard our community from this outbreak.  As such, it is with a heavy heart that we are announcing the cancellation of our Spring 2020 Carlsbad Youth Baseball season. 

We realize that the cancellation of baseball is disappointing for players, parents, and family members. There are a number of elements that went into this decision, including Guidance from the California Department of Public Health as well as our city's brave actions to close all parks, sports facilities, and sports leagues at least through the end of April (which accounts for the majority of the CYB season).

CYB views this as an opportunity to support our community as best we can so 100% of ALL registration fees paid for the Spring 2020 season will be refunded . Refunds will automatically be credited to the account that was used to pay for Spring 2020 registrations. We will start processing refunds immediately, but we are a volunteer-led organization and have approximately 750+ registrations this season, so it may take up to four weeks to receive your refund. If you don't receive your refund by the end of April, please contact our registrar at registrar@carlsbadyouthbaseball.org

Snack Bar checks will be destroyed. Cash received for snack bar deposits will be returned. CYB will be donating all perishable snack bar food to a local organization in an effort to further support our community. Thank you to those that volunteered during our President's Day Tournament as well as Opening Day week!

Coaches : details will be made available on when/how to return equipment once local gathering restrictions are lifted.

Carlsbad Youth Baseball has been an integral part of this community for many years and now our primary focus is the health and well-being of players and their family members, volunteers, and this community so that we can continue to play baseball and be an integral part of the community for years to come.

Thank you for your continued support of CYB. PLEASE continue to follow state and local guidance to socially distance yourselves so that we can get through this without overwhelming our healthcare system further.

Please stay safe. Below are some links on information regarding the COVID-19 outbreak:
