Important Registration Highlights

2020 Registration will work very similarly to last year. No online account is needed. The following are important highlights:
  • All required information will be collected online through the registration form. Paper copies will not be printed or collected this year.
  • Payment can be made online through the online registration form using one of our accepted credit/debit cards or via cash/check paid at an in-person registration session. If you would rather pay by payment plan, please contact us as soon as possible. Payments can be made at an in-person registration session. If you are in need of financial assistance, complete our Scholarship Request Form. 
  • A PARENT OF EACH ATHLETE MUST ATTEND AN IN-PERSON REGISTRATION SESSION AND THE MANDATORY PARENT & PLAYER MEETING TO RECEIVE ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO COMPLETE THE REGISTRATION PROCESS. PLAYERS ARE ALSO REQUIRED TO ATTEND THE MANDATORY PARENT & PLAYER MEETING. The Mandatory Parent & Player Meeting is on Tuesday, March 24, 2020 at 6:00 PM in the Portage High School gymnasium (POSTPONED).
  • All volunteers are required to complete an online concussion course through NFHS Learn. Information will be sent to you when you submit your volunteer application. The course takes approximately 30-40 minutes to complete. More information about this can be found here. When you complete the course, be sure to click here and complete the short form so that we know you have completed it.

Fundraising information (CANCELED FOR 2020)

For the 2020 season, we will not be doing a calendar raffle. However, we will be running a cookie dough sale. By default, all players are required to participate and sell at least five (5) items. Alternatively, you can pay a buyout fee and you will not be required to participate in the cookie dough sale.
​
You have two options and you must choose one during the registration process:
  • PARTICIPATE: To participate, you will need to write a deposit check for $50 to PORTAGE YOUTH BASEBALL. This will need to be turned in at an in-person registration session. When you turn in your deposit check, you will receive your fundraising supplies. Each athlete that elects to participate in the cookie dough sale needs to sell at least five (5) items. The completed cookie dough order form must be turned in on Draft Day on Saturday, April 4, 2020 (POSTPONED). Athletes in the T-Ball and Coach Pitch Divisions that do not participate in the draft are still required to show up and turn in their cookie dough orders. When you turn in your order of five (5) or more items, we will dispose of your deposit check and it will not be cashed. If you do not turn in your order or do not sell at least five (5) items, your $50 deposit check will be cashed.
  • BUYOUT: To buyout, you will pay an additional $50 fee during registration and you will be exempted from the fundraising requirements. With this option, you do not have to do any fundraising.

In-Person Registration Sessions

 We will have 2 In-Person Registration Sessions where you can ask questions, receive fundraising materials and information, show photo ID (volunteers only), and more! All In-Person Registration Sessions are located at Bartels Middle School in Room 106. A parent for every athlete MUST attend one of these sessions to complete the registration process and receive additional important information. (Parents that choose the buyout option for fundraising by paying an additional $50 during registration so their athlete does not have to sell cookie dough do not need to attend an in-person registration session to collect fundraising materials). Those that choose to pay by cash/check must also attend to submit payment.
  1. Saturday, March 7, 2020
    9:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Interested in Volunteering?

Portage Youth Baseball is a 100% volunteer organization. Imagine a youth baseball experience for children with confusing try-outs, few coaches, no uniforms, unsafe fields, umpires that show up late, and no score keepers. This is what it would be like with no volunteers. Training and support are available. To keep our program of 180+ children running, your help is necessary. The jobs can be fun and you will get to meet families in the community while setting a good example for our children by showing the importance of community service and volunteering! If you are interested, please complete our short required online volunteer application.

Indoor Training Opportunities

Portage Youth Baseball does not have its own indoor facility. However, there are opportunities that are located in or near Portage, WI and are recommended by Portage Youth Baseball if you wish to further develop your skills through indoor training. Access to these facilities and programs may require additional fees that are not included as part of an athlete's registration.
