Junior Baseball Organization, Inc. is a volunteer organization
providing one of the most unique frameworks in America allowing our
youth to play baseball the way it was meant to be played.
In
differing from traditional leagues, JBO's rules allow the player to
develop their baseball skills by playing with high school rules, namely
leading off and stealing bases.There are other minor modifications to
each age-division.JBO allows the player to grow with the field, as each
age division plays on a field designed in size that is appropriate for
his / her age.
Our local sanctioned youth baseball associations
throughout Oregon and SW Washington hold "skill evaluations" and
separate the players into 3 distinct age divisions, and then again into
3 distinct levels of play according to ability and experience. The
player plays on a team in his local association during the regular
season.
Regardless of age or skill division, each player has the
opportunity to advance at season's end to his / her JBO Championship
Tournament with the same team he or she has played with throughout the
season. This eliminates the practice of selecting all-star teams and
leaving the majority of players out of post-season play.
