REFUND
REFUND REQUEST POLICY
Blue Springs Baseball recognizes there are times when our program may not fit every child - or - that from time to time, family plans change. We have scaled our refund policy to help offset our cost associated with accommodating every registered player.
Anyone requesting a refund must complete our Refund Request Form. This form must be completely filled out.
Refund requests received before the posted date of the Blue Springs Baseball Draft Day, will be entitled to a full refund of their registration fee, minus a $15 processing fee.
Refund requests received after the posted date of the Blue Springs Baseball Draft Day, but before the game schedule has begun, will be entitled to a 50% refund, minus a $15 processing fee.
There will be no refunds granted from Blue Springs Baseball once the game schedules have begun, regardless if your child played in a game or not. Nor will Blue Springs Baseball grant refunds for players in the National League. Refunds for players in the National League are to be worked out between the player’s parents and the team manager.
Remember, Raffle tickets, service fees, and late registration fees are not refundable.
Once your refund request information has been verified, BSB will issue your refund by one of the following methods:
- If fee was originally paid by cash or check, the refund will be mailed to the address provided on the request.
- If fee was originally paid by credit card, the refund will be applied to the credit card used for enrollment.
INJURY
REPORTING AN INJURY

YOUTH SAFETY
YOUTH SAFETY POLICY
In compliance with the 2017 Safe Sport Act, which has set higher standards of care to protect youth, Blue Springs Baseball (BSB) has adopted a Child Abuse/Molestation Risk Management Program. Certain elements of this program are being communicated to parents in our Parent’s Guide in order to enhance education and to help to create an environment that is hostile to abusers.
Our league could not function without our volunteers. As such, all volunteers who have repeated access to children will be required to complete a Volunteer Application, and a Criminal Background Check will be conducted on each volunteer. The League Conduct Official will review the Volunteer Applications and will disqualify any candidate with a conviction involving crimes against a minor. In addition, other charges and convictions may be an indication of an unfit volunteer and may result in disqualification.
Please take the time to review our PARENT'S GUIDE TO ABUSE RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM.
Thank you for taking the time to better understand the risk management program that is being implemented by Blue Springs Baseball. Your concern and vigilance are not only appreciated, but also an essential element of this program.

TYLER PIRTLE SCHOLARSHIPS
SCHOLARSHIP POLICY
BSB’s mission is for all area youth to play organized baseball. As an independent organization, we can only exist due to the fees we collect. However, we understand there are times when families may encounter a financial situation that temporarily prevents them from complying with our payment procedures. The purpose of this agreement is to provide you with a vehicle to make it easier for your family to allow your child to participate, while meeting our financial concerns.
The completed agreement will be kept as confidential as plausible.
The completed agreement must be signed off by the league President or Vice President.
Proposed payment solutions may include reduced fees, a payment schedule, or possibly a way to work off the league fees by providing services to the league. Please provide details on the solution that best fits your needs.
Failure to complete the agreed upon terms will result in forfeiture of this opportunity in the future.
To apply, please complete the SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION.
