📢 For our Fall 2026 T-Ball and 6U families: drafts for these age divisions will take place this weekend, and then contact info will be shared with volunteer coaches to begin contacting you early next week.

Please ensure the phone number(s) and email address(es) in your WLYA account are up to date so your coach can connect with you next week with team information.

Things are about to go BANANAS at WLYA with our biggest and most fun Fall season yet🍌🥳🔥

​Coach outreach is officially in progress with practice schedules coming right around the corner, and we’re bringing all the fun, energy, and competition to the field.

Update: Bats are found, glove is still missing!

LOST & FOUND: 8U Evaluations 🚨
Please check your gear bags from last night’s 8U evaluations! A couple of items were accidentally swapped or misplaced:

🥎 8U Girls Softball: Ashton Thrash is missing her bat that is blue and white. Left behind in its place was a pink Sapphire bat.

⚾️ 8U Boys Baseball: Coach Devin Snowden is missing a Wilson A2000 glove marked with the name "Grey Snowden."

If you think you have either of these items by mistake, or if you brought home the wrong bat, please send us a direct message so we can get everything back to its right owner!

This is a great reminder for all of us - now is the time to label our gear for the season and check bags ❤️

Thanks for helping us clear this up! 🥎⚾

Thank you!

We are extending deadline for registration for 10U and 12U girls softball. We need a few more for those age divisions to make 2 teams for 12U and 3 teams for 10U. Go to wlyaplayball.com and get signed up today.

We need one more coach for 12U baseball. If you are interested, please reach out to Chris Roberts (601-480-5197) or message us here.

We also need one more coach for 10U softball. If you are interested, please reach out to softball commissioner Grant Hill or message us here.

Evaluations are tomorrow, so please reach out as soon as possible. We can't have a season without coaches for each team.
