FALL BALL TOURNAMENT IS OCTOBER 6!

BRACKETS TO BE POSTED ON MONDAY!

All Fall Ball divisions (except Tee Ball) will participate in a fun, memorable rec league tournament on Sunday, October 6. The tournament is a single-elimination tournament and pairings are based on a random draw. Save the date on your calendar now. Then check the OYO website on Monday for the tournament pairings and game times! Stay tuned!

REMINDER: YOUR WORDS AND ACTIONS MATTER!

Our actions can define how each and every child and adult in our league approach and handle adversity. OYO is a recreational league focused on instruction and development. We want to work with you to help create an environment that lifts up these resilient ballplayers (and coaches) when they take the field. You can make a difference in ensuring our players and coaches have fun always.


In the spirit of full transparency, if a player, coach or fan is ejected, he/she will be asked to leave the park immediately and be suspended for a minimum of one additional game. What's more, if a coach, player or fan is found in violation of the principles established in the OYO Code of Conduct or The OYO Way, then a suspension could be issued even without an in-game ejection.


If we continue to work together to prioritize making OYO an amazing place to play for all players, teams and fans, then this should never be an issue for any of our wonderful players or fans.

HELP OUR FAMILIES FEEL SAFE

KNOW WHAT'S PERMITTED AT OYO

Beginning with no smoking or vaping, we want all visitors to enjoy their time at OYO. So, share the park rules with your visiting fans!


SIMPLE RULES. GREAT EXPERIENCE.

PARKING MATTERS KEEPS EVERYONE SAFE AT OYO!

HELP US HELP YOU!

When it comes to keeping your vehicle safe and secure, there's a lot you can do with a few simple steps. First and foremost, keep your cars locked and secure. And, keep your valuables out of sight. Utilizing basic safety practices minimizes vehicle break-ins and theft while you enjoy the games. So, keep all valuables (such as phones, purses, electronics, equipment and personal belongings) out of plain view -- or even leave them at home -- and keep your cars locked and secure at all times.

BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR

We look forward to welcoming you and your ballplayer to Veterans Memorial Park, the home of OYO, every week. Please always park within the park and never in surrounding neighborhoods or on private property, where you may be liable for your car being ticketed or towed. We want to be good neighbor to the homes that are adjacent to our fields. Follow the parking recommendation signage to park where you can ensure the shortest walk to your field, too.


ALWAYS PARK AT VETERANS MEMORIAL PARK ONLY
