Registration
Please see the “2019 Summer Rates” table below for divisions and fees. Please register by June 1st, by clicking on the “Register Now” button below.
As part of the BC (Minor) Baseball system, North Shore Baseball Association offers a comprehensive and inclusive Summer Ball program for all levels of players from 9U (Tadpole) – 18U (Midget). It is not limited to just a select group of “All Stars”. To be able to play in Summer Ball, you need to have played in our Spring Season this year.
Our programs run from the end of June to the beginning of August and teams will play other leagues in the Lower Mainland with regular games plus potential tournaments. In most cases, we do our best to accommodate larger rosters because we know players may also have other unavoidable summer commitments. More details are provided by division.
Please note: The summer season in BC (Minor) Baseball is a more competitive season. For summer play in 11U through 18U, the number of players on each team may be limited due to the level of play, number of players and coach availability. If the NSBA is unable to offer your player a spot due to these factors, then a full refund will be provided.
Please Note: For those players that played their spring season with another BC (Minor) Baseball league, please email the NSBA Registrar first before registering.
Spring Season: April to June
Summer Season: end of June to beginning August

Player Move Up Requests:
The North Shore Baseball Association is proudly affiliated with BC (Minor) Baseball. The BC (Minor) Baseball system is not constructed in a way that would allow players to “move up” to older divisions. BC (Minor) Baseball is entirely age-based with some tiering by skill level as players progress from 11U (Mosquito) and above. At the younger ages, the system promotes long term athlete development through age-based play focused on fun, support and skill development.
