REGISTRATION for the 2023 Summer Season is now CLOSED. If any divisions have spots available for registration or waitlist they will appear on the registration page.
The Hamlin Park Baseball Association (HPBA) Program will include nearly 1,000 players (boys and girls ages 5 - 19) participating in 9 different divisions, 6 baseball divisions and 3 softball divisions. As in past years, there continues to be tremendous interest in any openings, and we anticipate that there will be more demand for openings than there are spots available. "Waiting Lists” will be developed for each division.

Scholarship Program
HPBA does offer financial assistance through the Jack Burke Scholarship Fund. Financial Assistance is provided to those players and families who need help in paying the HPBA summer House League registration fees.
HPBA will be offering families the opportunity to sponsor other deserving players in the program who may not have the financial resources to fully cover their registration fees. If you would like to contribute to our "Jack Burke Scholarship Fund", there will be a place within the registration process for you to make a tax deductible contribution to help these kids participate.
Please go to the Jack Burke Scholarship Fund page to learn more and to apply for a scholarship.
