2027-ELECT OYO BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Each and every family at OYO has their reasons for choosing OYO as their place for baseball and softball. Over the years, we’ve learned families choose — and return to — OYO for many reasons, ranging from our diversity to our focus on equality, from the commitment to player development to game day experiences, from the quantity of teams to the quality of coaching, from the family atmosphere to the park’s proximity, from the concession stand service to the quality of umpiring, and from our Challenger program to rec league to multi-level travel program.The affairs of OYO shall be governed by a Board of Directors composed of executive board officers, chairpersons, commissioners and coordinators.
The Board of Directors is led by 13 elected officers serving two-year terms. The board also includes 25 committee chairpersons (some of which feature co-chair positions) and 15 league or travel commissioners, all of whom are elected to one-year terms.
Elections are held annually at the September board meeting. For more information or submit a nomination, please contact the OYO President or OYO Vice President of Administration.
All directors are subject to a background check by the State Police and/or an investigative agency for arrests in activities such as, but not limited to, embezzlement, child abuse, spousal abuse, child molestation, and other felony convictions. In the event of an unfavorable check, the person in question will be reviewed and voted on by the Executive Board.
All terms for the 2027-Elect Board Members commence on November 1, 2026.
