House League Registration (Sudbury Minor Baseball Association)

The house league program does not have games on Friday, Saturday or Sunday's with the exception of the annual June tournament weekend (June 19-21 2026).

Coaches may schedule practices on weekends however, participation is not mandatory on weekends at the house league level (with the exception of tournament play)..

Age categories for the house league program are identified below and based on year of birth.

SMBA does not allow players to register to 'play up' a division. SMBA will monitor ages

Note: Girls registering with the SMBA are eligible to play down one year.

All players will be required to supply:

• Batting helmet with 
• Cleats (no metal cleats allowed) - running shoes acceptable at 5u and 7u
• Jock/jill
• Glove
• Optional: bat, batting gloves, other protective equipment

SMBA will supply:

• Team equipment (baseballs, rally cap equipment, team bat)
• Field equipment (bases, tees, pitching machines)
• Player uniforms (jersey and pants)
• Coach jerseys 

The SMBA wants all players to enjoy their experience and baseball is a great opportunity to make new friends and meet new people. However we recognize that having a friend on the team or for transportation purposes can help a player when there is a special need.

The SMBA will try to honor friend requests but they cannot be guaranteed. Our objective when selecting teams is to have fair and balanced play.

The following guidelines will be used when assessing friend requests:

• One sibling request
• One friend request is allowed per child. Requests for multiple players cannot be guaranteed.
• A friend request will only be considered if it’s reciprocal (A requests B and B requests A.)
• Friend requests across tiers or divisions will not be considered, players must play within their division.

SMBA aims to make teams fairly and equally skilled to ensure that games are competitive. The SMBA Registrar makes the teams based on:

• Sponsors
• Coaches
• Sibling requests
• Friend requests, where possible
• Skill ranking based on the house league evaluation or self evaluation

Effective for 2025 season:

House League players may request a refund as follows:

1.      Refunds must be for a valid reason, such as long-term injury that will prevent the player from engaging in play for the entirety of the season, or moving outside of the City of Greater Sudbury. SMBA reserves the right to deny refunds on the grounds of disagreement of SMBA policy (e.g., rostering, friend requests, etc.).
2. All refunds are at the discretion of the Registrar and SMBA Board Officers
3. Approved refunds will be paid in accordance with the below table.

*Payment processing fees are determined by SportsPay. 

The entirety of the regular season schedule will be published and released approximately 2-3 weeks prior to the start of the season. Nights of play will remain the same for the regular season, with exceptions for extenuating circumstances (e.g. rainout, makeup games, other unforeseen circumstances).

Registration will close when the capacity of each division has been reached, or when house league evaluations have occurred (whichever happens first). At that point in time, the waitlist will be activated and players may be invited to register.

SMBA games and practices for all programs are held at our headquarters at the Terry Fox Complex located at 21 Lasalle Boulevard in Sudbury, Selkirk Park located at 1 Selkirk Street in Sudbury, and Elm West located at 505 White Avenue in Sudbury. 

An interactive map showing the field locations is available here.

Other fields may be added depending on field availability and registration.

We will occasionally send emails leading up to the season, but once the teams are launched, we will mostly use the SportsHeadz app to communicate with you, and allow you to communicate with your team. This includes any major announcements, schedule changes, rain-outs, etc. Announcements will also be sent to your email. 

It is important that you register your player with the correct email address for all parents/guardians (2 per player). Additional guardians can be added to the SportsHeadz App once launched.
