The DYBSA exists to further grow the baseball and softball talent in the DeWitt School District Area. This is done through Travel, Tournament, and Recreational programs. The travel/tournament philosophy is to develop as many players as possible for the high school baseball and softball programs, and not use a win-at-all cost mentality. The recreational program's goal is to grow the number and quality of players in DeWitt--to keep and attract as many DeWitt residents into baseball and softball as possible, and to provide a safe and fun experience for players.
