***New for 2026
Baseball Alberta is looking to create a local capital region league for 9U. Although details are not finalized, we are excited for these potential changes. We don't know the full details, but will educate our members as soon as we know more.
For those interested, a tryout joint provincial team between BMBA and Leduc will be made to participate in the 11U A provincials after June to mid-July.
Additional development is anticipated for all divisions and a jamboree will run on the Beaumont Jays Diamond.
