Upcoming Registration Timelines
Fall, Spring and Summer Seasons
LMBA operates in spring, summer and fall seasons and all three will require a formal registration process be completed by interested participants.
Spring 2025 - registration will open December 15 for returning participants in 5U-18U divisions and then all interested early in the new year.
Summer 2025 - those interested in participating in the 8U and older summer ball competitive season will be required to register for the tryout process. 7U often runs a small fun summer program in July which will be open to all interested. Information on summer programs will be provided during the spring season.
Fall 2025 - registration typically opens mid-August for the 9U to 15U divisions (note fall operates on the same birth year allocation as Spring 2026).
For any new to Ladner families or players who were not part of the LMBA family this past spring, please email our registrar for further information on joining the spring 2025 programs.
2025 Coach / Umpire Applications
All those interested in acting as a coach (head or assistant) for the 2025 spring season will be required to submit a short application.

In order to ensure that all player requests are treated fairly, the LMBA employs the following policy:
- Player requests will be considered but are not guaranteed
- To ensure fair play, team balancing will take precedence over player requests
- Player requests can only be made by the player's legal guardian
- Coaches cannot request to have certain players on their teams
- One parent cannot make a group request, even if the players guardian consents
- Only player requests made prior to the making of the teams will be considered
- Player requests must be made in writing to Division Manager
- Siblings who request to play together will be given first priority
- There will be no movement of players once the teams have been made, unless there are exceptional circumstances
Spring Baseball Season (April – June):
- Withdrawal requests submitted up to the day before the start of the season will receive a refund of applicable player registration fees less the $50 non-refundable administration fee.
- Withdrawal requests submitted between April 1st and April 15th will receive a refund of 50% of the applicable player registration fees.
- No refunds will be issued after April 15th.
General Information Requests for withdrawals and refunds must be made via email to the registrar (registrar@ladnerminorbaseball.com).
Please include your child's name, division, coach/team, and reason for withdrawal.
Refunds will only be issued to the original purchaser and credit card used at registration. Do not use VISA/MC gift cards to pay for your registration as refunds can not be put back to these cards.
