BC Minor Baseball – 2026 RULEBOOK

11U is a ‘recreational/house’ level and suited for most players.

The ’11U’ level is offered for those who prefer to participate in a more recreational style of play.
At this level there is a greater focus on participation and increased opportunity to explore a variety of positions.
Fair play rules are in effect.
This program is also perfect for those unable to make a commitment to a more intense baseball programming.
Our 11U teams play an ‘Interlock’ schedule with teams from other local associations. 

Spring season runs end of March – end of June, with Interlock playoffs mid June. 

You can expect approx. 3-4 events per week (combination of practices & games)

11U MSET (Mosquito Select Exhibition Team) is a competitive team made up of selected players and coaches from the spring teams.

  • Interested players will be selected through the spring evaluations process
  • Interested Coaches will be selected based on their baseball experience, NCCP training requirements met, availability for extra practices/games above their spring team schedule, and on their child making the team.
  • The MSET team will play an extra game on Sunday evenings with other MSET teams from across the lower mainland.
11UAA – is a more competitive level of play with a higher level of commitment. (this offering is dependant on registration numbers and is likely we have to offer it in summer)

It is designed for experienced players who are invested in elevating their baseball game, are looking for a challenge and can commit to a more robust schedule. At this AA level there is a greater emphasis on strategy and players begin to focus on a few key positions and explore training specific to those needs. 

  • Tryouts will be conducted for the 11UAA team
  • Players not selected for the AA team will be drafted onto one of our balanced 11UA teams. 
  • *Additional fees will apply for those that make the AA roster

Our 11UAA team participates in a Spring ‘Interlock’ schedule with teams from other associations throughout the lower mainland. Spring season runs mid March – June, with Interlock playoffs in the beginning of June. 

You can expect 3-4 events per week (practices & games)

We will run one 11UAA & one 11UA summer Allstar team in 2026 playing as the New West Minor Diamondsides.
