Gopher State

Gopher State Baseball League

Gopher State is a traveling baseball league that falls under Minnesota Youth Athletic Services (MYAS).

SRYBA Gopher State Teams are formed after Fall Evaluations each year for 10u-14u players. After evaluations, if your player qualifies for a Gopher State Team, you will be contacted by the SRYBA Board for Call Backs. This is volunatary, and you can decline if you choose to stay at the CMCBL Level.

SRYBA requires that Players attend school within the ISD47 District or live within the district area. 

Ages

10U-14U


When

League play starts mid April and regular season play ends at the end of June. Tournaments may run through the end of July.

Where

Home games are played at one of our listed field locations in Sauk Rapids, dependent on age level.

Away games require travel within District 1 (see below).


Practices

Practices typically begin indoors in March pending gym availability. Outdoor practices are dependent of field conditions and weather.

Games

Game nights vary with several out of town games, with up to 3 weekend tournaments scheduled by the Head Coach of each team, with a 4th weekend if the team qualifies for a State Tournament. These teams require a lot of time and dedication.
