GYS hosts two separate baseball seasons each year, a Spring season and a Fall season. Our games are played at the Gibbs Ruritan Park. The league is open to players aged 3 to 14. When selecting a division, we use the player's age as of April 1st of the current year. The younger players can play on coed teams. We also host several tournament opportunities for both in park and outside open league teams. Park policies and procedures can be found here

Each year we start sign ups in January for Spring baseball. Teams are drafted and then practices start in early March with games starting in early to mid-April. The season consists of roughly 10 games per team for about 6 - 8 weeks. This program is not designed or allowed for those teams or players registered as USSSA AA members or those who hold tryouts/cut players. If you have or participate within a team that falls in either of the preceding categories, please contact Gibbs Youth Sports.
Baseball Fall Season
After taking a small break during the heat of summer we start up our Fall season. Our fall league is designed for additional instruction and allows for those teams that have to "move up" to the next division time to get acclimated to the new rules and strategies. Typically sign ups for fall ball start in late June-early July and games start after Labor Day.
Recreational Basketball
We offer our recreational basketball program to players ages 5 - 12. Our league focuses on the fundamentals of the game as well as providing an enjoyable experience for each player. Players of all skill levels are encouraged to participate. All players are accepted. Teams are formed by draft to maximize team parity in each league.
Flag Football
We offer flag football for players aged 5-6 based on their ages as of August 1st of the current year. Games are played at John Tarleton and Tommy Schumpert fields.
Contact Football We offer tackle football for players aged 7-10 based on their age as of August 1st of the current year. Games are played at John Tarleton and Tommy Schumpert fields. Equipment is loaned out to each player and must be returned at the closure of each season. This age group also plays in bowl games during the season.
Cheerleading
We offer cheerleading for our football teams each fall season. Cheer is for girls aged 4-14. They will learn their cheers and get a chance to cheer for multiple different teams during the season.
