All games are ON as scheduled
Saturday, July 23rd
Notice: Due to a change in the Manitowoc Parks and Recreation policy, decisions on rain cancellations will be made at 4:30 pm during the week, not 4:00 pm as in previous years. MYBA will make every effort to notify parents and teams of cancellations as soon as they're made available.
If cancellation is not posted on the website by 4:45 pm, you are to report to your diamond as scheduled. The umpire will make any decisions to cancel the games after that time. Thank you.
Dream. Build. Play Ball!
MANITOWOC YOUTH BASEBALL/SOFTBALL COMPLEX SET FOR GROUNDBREAKING: Dream. BUILD! Play Ball.
Manitowoc, Wisconsin, July 19, 2016 – Manitowoc Youth Baseball/Softball Association President, Randy Heinzen, announces that “It is time to put the shovels in the ground and get to the BUILD stage of this project! After three years of planning and fundraising, it is with great excitement that we announce we are officially set for groundbreaking and to make this dream a reality. We have come a long come a long way with this project and have raised approximately $1.4 million of the estimated $1.8 million that is needed to complete the project. With the $1.4 million, we know that we can complete the fields and concession stand and be ready to play on the fields in spring of 2017. We continue our fundraising efforts to raise the additional $400,000 that is needed to complete lights and other amenities for the final phase of the complex.”
The project includes a four baseball/softball diamond complex to be located at Citizen Park, 930 North 18th Street, in Manitowoc.
Heinzen notes that the support of the local community has been amazing. The manner in which our dedicated project committee, along with the business owners and citizens of our area, have come together for this project truly shows the spirit of Manitowoc County. These efforts show a commitment to the future of our children, by providing them with a baseball/softball complex that will serve the lakeshore area for years to come.
A groundbreaking ceremony is scheduled for July 27th with the physical construction work beginning in early August.
The new complex will be used for: MYBA leagues, high school girls' fast pitch softball team home games and tournaments, T-Ball and pitching machine leagues, and locally-hosted tournaments.
