Rules and Exceptions

Please review and download the rules document for our Recreation & Premier Programs found at the bottom of this webpage.  In addition to the DYB rules, our Premier league teams must also abide by DFW Interlock rules, and our Select league teams must also abide by the Texas Elite Baseball Association (TEBA) rules, which are agreed upon by their participating organizations

DYB has created rules to promote player growth, understanding of baseball and safety.  The rules allow for the addition of baseball strategies with age e.g. leads, pickoffs, steals, drop 3rd strike, etc.

ALL RULES MUST BE FOLLOWED.  NO EXCEPTIONS.  Failure to adhere to DYB rules may result in a coach being asked to leave a game, practice or permanent removal depending on the situation.  The DYB Board of Directors reviews all reported rules infractions.   

For our All Star and Select league teams, which can play in various tournaments across the state/country, and are governed by the tournaments they participate in (e.g. USSSA, Travel Sports, ASE, etc.).
