📍INCASE YOU DIDN’T KNOW

We’ve received questions about why Amsterdam Youth Baseball holds elections every two years instead of annually, so we wanted to share some background.

Amsterdam Youth Baseball is a function of the Amsterdam Recreation Department, and our agreement with the City of Amsterdam requires biennial board elections.

While we participate with Little League International, Little League makes up less than 25% of the baseball programming we provide. AYB operates year-round, including our Fall Recreation program, Intermediate League for ages 13–15, CD Elite Travel Baseball, and free winter clinics. Simply put, Amsterdam Youth Baseball operates well beyond the traditional Little League season.

Because our organization extends well beyond the traditional Little League season, our board positions require a significant investment of time and learning. Two-year terms allow board members to learn their roles, implement ideas, and see those improvements through.

AYB has communicated with Little League International regarding our election process and remains in good standing with Little League.

Ultimately, biennial elections allow us to balance strong programming and continuity with our primary goal: providing more baseball opportunities for the children and families we serve.

⚾ More baseball. More opportunities. More ways for our kids to play.
