The following list is a summary of equipment needs for each of our leagues.  There are mandatory items that are needed, optional items that are a suggestion and a listing of equipment that we have available to use if needed.  For the items that available for shared use, MYAA keeps a supply of equipment at the fields for shared use.  These are basic items for those that need them. 
For bats:  If purchasing a bat, we recommend you speak to a department rep at the local sports stores when purchasing for guidance.  All  baseball bats must have the USA Baseball stamp.

For anyone that is having financial difficulty obtaining equipment, please contact us.  We often have donated equipment at the building or can help figure something out for you and your child!
