2025/2026 Travel

Travel Program:

NYB's travel program is our most competitive offering and is open to Boys in Grades 3-8 and Girls in Grades 4-8.  ***Please note that the CMYBL does not have a Grade 3 Division for Boys or a Grade 4 Division for Girls.  However, we encourage boys in Grade 3 and girls in Grade 4 to try out for a travel team if they are interested and they would simply attend the tryout for the grade above them (Grade 4 Boys or Grade 5 Girls).  

Travel Tryout Process:

1. All players interested in participating in our travel program must attend tryouts.  The tryouts are scheduled for Sunday, 10/20, and Sunday, 10/27, between 2pm and 8pm.  Players are expected to attend both tryouts.

2. Each session will be 75 minutes and the exact schedule will be finalized in the Fall. 

3. There will be a minimum of 3 evaluators at each tryout session.  Each evaluator will submit an individual evaluation to the NYB President and Vice President for their respective group without collaboration with the other evaluators.  

4. No evaluator will evaluate their own son/daughter's age group.

5. All evaluators have minimum qualifications of high school playing experience and head coaching experience at the youth or high school level.  

6. There will be a brief meeting with parents prior to the tryout session in the lobby or cafeteria, but parents will NOT be allowed in the gym during the tryout.

7. All players will be evaluated using the same criteria to ensure consistency and fairness.


Team Selection Process:

1. No coaching assignments will be made until after teams are selected.

2. The NYB Board and Tryout Evaluators will hold a team selection meeting the week of 10/28.

3. Tryout Evaluations will be the primary determining factor on team placement.  

4. Travel coaches complete an end of the season evaluation so we also have this data available from the previous year.  However, this information will only be used in situations involving sick or injured players, tiebreaker scenarios where players' tryout evaluation scores are the same and other possible extenuating circumstances.    

5. If we do not have any volunteers for a particular team after teams are finalized, we will reach out requesting volunteers.  If we do not have anyone willing to coach then we would not be able to field that particular team.  

6. Families will be notified by NYB via email whether or not they made a team and what team they are on.  If a player does not make a travel team, he/she still has the opportunity to participate in our in-town program.  Coaches will then follow-up with additional information.  

Time Commitment for Travel:

1. Travel teams practice 2 times a week, typically for 75 minutes each session.  

2. The Girls HS program also runs clinics every Saturday for our travel teams (and our in-town programs) and we are hoping to incorporate this opportunity for the boys as well and are currently working with the HS staff to coordinate.  

3. Games are typically on Sundays with some occasional games on Saturdays due to gym availability, league scheduling and changes due to weather.  

Uniforms:

All players are required to purchase a uniform, but if your uniform from the previous year still fits, there is no need to buy a new one! Information will be sent out immediately after notification of team selection with instructions on ordering for those that need to purchase one.
