What equipment does my child need to play baseball?

We have a saying at Danbury Youth Baseball: All you need is a glove and a good attitude. The truth is, you’ll need a few other things as well. All players must have a baseball glove, a baseball bat (see the Babe Ruth Bat Regulations page for details about approved bats), a baseball batting helmet, grey baseball pants, a protective cup, and molded rubber cleats (gym shoes/sneakers are acceptable for Single A (ages 5 & 6)). Danbury Youth Baseball will provide all players with a jersey (typically a dry fit shirt), a hat and a pair of baseball socks. Children should also bring water to all games and practices.

When does the season start?

Our spring season runs from early April through early June and our fall season runs from early September though late October. The exact start date for the spring season depends largely on the weather and field conditions following the winter.

How much does registration cost for the spring and/or fall season?

A Division (ages 4-6): $50
AA Division (ages 7&8): $100
AAA Division (ages 9&10): $150
Majors Division (ages 11&12): $175
