While HBA does its best to maintain a flat fee each year, we have seen our overall costs go up considerably this season, including: Umpires, league fees, equipment (notably baseball costs), uniforms and tournament costs. Due to these cost pressures, there is a slight year over year increase to ensure costs are properly accounted for. HBA offers a four-time installment payment plan or paying 100% up front.
For families needing financial assistance, scholarship requests can be made during the registration process.
