MV Youth Baseball & Softball

In 2025, Martha's Vineyard Little League got a new name - MV Youth Baseball & Softball, Inc.

The Board of Directors voted to switch from a Little League organization to a Babe Ruth and Cal Ripken organization to keep league age dates consistent across regular season and tournament play. The new qualifying date to determine a player's league age is May 1st.

Due to this restructuring under a new organization, we needed to change our name. Our website domain and emails will remain the same through 2025 to help transition the community into our new name. If you have any questions, please email: info@mvlittleleague.org


Season start welcome email and important dates

Welcome to the 2025 season!

Dates to note for the rest of the season 

Week of June 2nd-- Magnet fundraiser money due to coach or parent coordinator. Each player who registered on time received 5 magnets to sell for $10 each. Unsold Magnets and/or $$ raised should be returned this week to the league. Each team will collect and submit to Fundraising coordinator. **Spare magnets can be sold to families who registered late and did not receive any. 

June 3rd - Sharks host MVYB&S! Meet at gates @ 5:45 pm to warm-up with Sharks players and run the bases with Sharkey! Families and chaperones get into the game for free with players. 

June 14th-- Playoffs start for Minors and Majors; Last regular season games for all other divisions.

June 21st - Championship & Awards Day for all players, Championship games for Majors & Minors divisions. 

Summer Travel teams will be announced on Memorial Day Weekend. All Majors and Minors players are eligible and teams will be selected by coach votes. We plan to have 12s/11s/10s/ and possibly a U9 for travel teams. Travel tournaments will be in June and July.

Sport Engine FAQ : How to add second parent to Sports Engine, or phone number

Sports Engine is the new registration and team software for MVYB&S, beginning in 2024. The easiest way for you to communicate with your team will be to add this app to your smart phone. When you register your player, an account will be created. If your child played last year, you already have an account. 

With the Sports Engine messaging, the parent who initially registered the player is the only person who will initially receive communication via email and/or phone. 

To add another guardian, receive texts and push notifications, please update your family profile. (The league cannot due this for security reasons.)

Here is a helpful how to article: How to add a second guardian

**If you receive a privacy error, please email: nina@mvlittleleague.org and I will submit a help ticket with Sports Engine.
