*****************************************************************
Welcome to the Charles County Youth League (CCYL), where the kids always come 1st!!!
CCYL is founded on 4 main pillars: Have Fun, Do Your Best, Team Work, & Sportsmanship! We teach that if you do those 4 things then you had a good day, win or lose! We also teach that priorities (in order) are: Family, School, then Baseball/Softball!
The objective of the CCYL is to instill the values of good sportsmanship, character, community and integrity in our youth. We desire to provide them with an enriching environment where they can reach their goals of sport and exceed their own expectations.
CCYL is a Cal Ripken/Babe Ruth Baseball and Softball organization. Our emphasis is to assist children in sportsmanship and skills development. It is our desire that each child is given a positive environment to play a competitive sport. It is CCYL's intent to use our website to provide timely, secure information to our CCYL members. The on-line registration allows our members to register at their convenience. It provides the CCYL Board of Directors and League Commissioners the ability to more effectively serve the children of Charles County.

posted 02/25/2012
All managers have the power to run their team's web page within the CCYL web site. It's a powerful & fun tool that I strongly recommend all teams use. You can communicate easily with your team, see the roster, post bulletin board items, share pictures, etc.
Here's how to access the web site as a manager. When you do that you have power to contact your team & manipulate your team page.
1. Log into the web site by clicking on the Admin tab (top menu), type in your name (NOT email address), & type in your manager password (given by your Division Commissioner).
2. On the top menu bar click on "Team", make sure "Season" says "2012 Season", navigate "Division" to whatever your division is, then navigate "Team" to whatever your team name is.
3. Once into your team page the left side menu has your team page options.
If you have any questions please contact your division Commissioner.
Have fun!

Register for a 2012 NIKE Softball Camp!
The 2012 NIKE Softball Camps are here with a new look and new NIKE SPORTS CAMPS WEBSITE! Now more than ever it is easier for you to search through our programs and find the location that is best for you. More information, maps, and photos for you to see. Come check it out now and sign up again for your favorite camp or give one of our new and exciting locations a try! Click here to go directly to NIKE Softball Camps! Or...click on your favorite site directly below!
What separates Nike Softball Camps from all the others? What is the #1 benefit you will get from attending these camps? Nike Softball Camps are about taking it up a notch...it is emotional; it is about striving for perfection in a game decided by inches and hundredths of seconds. Having an “edge” is the difference between being called out or safe, driving a single up the middle, a double off the wall, or a game winning homerun; it is about turning a clutch double play or making a diving catch.
 Early Sign Up Offer
This summer, NIKE Softball Camps sponsored by USA Softball and the ASA wants to reach out to you and let you know about a very special offer that we have for any camper who registers before February 20th!
 By reserving your spot before February 20th at any of our Nike Softball Camps, you will be automatically entered into our drawing to win one of two amazing softball collectors items! First drawing will be for an Olympic Jersey personally signed by Cat Osterman. The second drawing will be for an 8 x 10 picture signed by the entire 2011 PAM AMERICAN GOLD MEDAL TEAM. The two winners will be announced in June 2012 and mailed their jersey and picture.
Registering is easy; just click on one of the camp locations below and reserve a spot with a $265 deposit ($250 deposit +$15 registration fee).
