Amarillo Area Youth Baseball League is excited to announce our partnership with Kids, Inc. This partnership will offer many benefits for all of our families, players, and teams, such as a front office support staff, a team of youth sports professionals, as well as the addition of Rockrose Sports Park to our field inventory, to name a few.
We strive to ensure that every kid who wants to play baseball has a place to learn, have fun, and work hard to improve their skills, ultimately giving them a chance to play for their high school baseball teams. This won’t change, with all programming continuing seamlessly under this partnership with Kids, Inc.
We would like to thank every coach and volunteer who've put in so much of their time working with the kids, along with each of our team and corporate sponsors, who’ve helped keep the cost to play the game as low as possible. We’d also like to give a special thanks to the City of Amarillo and the City of Canyon, along with their Parks Dept, for all their support and effort to make sure our area kids had a place to play the game, and look forward to that continued relationship. Last but certainly not least, we want to thank the Executive Board of Texas Panhandle Youth Sports Foundation for their commitment to all the baseball and fastpitch softball programs in the area, and for making this possible.
