Junior Baseball Organization, Inc. teams are formed based on skill. Each division of play forms 3-skill levels…highest to lowest
· Federal – highest skill level
· American
· National – recreational skill level
Teams play league games throughout the greater Washington County area. League standings are kept to determine playoff and JBO Championship tournament teams. Individual teams, regardless of skill, are encouraged to participate in weekend invitational tournaments throughout the JBO program. This provides an opportunity for teams to compete with teams in other geographic areas in the JBO program.
JBO rules require that every player play a minimum of 6-defensive outs (9-outs for Seniors) and the teams bat their roster. HBBA forms teams of 12 – 13 players per team.
