FAQ
YOU'VE GOT QUESTIONS? WE'VE GOT ANSWERS.
THERE IS AN ISSUE I NEED TO DISCUSS, WHO DO I TALK TO?
If the issue relates to something specific to your child's team, and you don't feel your team's coach is the best person to address it or hasn't addressed it to your satisfaction, then please contact your relevant division Commissioner:
Mustang Commissioner(10u)
Bronco Commissioner(12u)
Pony Commissioner(14u)
If the issue is still not resolved to your satisfaction OR the issue is broader and related to OBA more generally, please contact the OBA President.
CAN NON-ORINDA CHILDREN PLAY IN OBA?
OBA is designed to be an inclusive community-based baseball program, primarily serving the kids of Orinda. As such, Orinda kids will have priority to register and play for House and Bandit Baseball teams.
However, non-Orinda residents who have previous OBA experience, or have previously lived in Orinda, or who have or still attend Orinda schools will be allowed to participate.
WHAT ARE THE VOLUNTEER REQUIREMNTS?
Please see our Volunteer Page.
WHEN AND WHERE ARE ALL-STAR TEAM TOURNAMENTS PLAYED?
House All-Star teams are formed in each division and generally play in a Memorial Day weekend tournament most likely located in the greater Bay Area.
League Commissioners will inquire mid-season about what parents would like to put forth their child for all-star consideration (availability and interest being primary factors), then hold an all-star selection meeting with coaches, and then communicate who has been selected.
HOW DO I KNOW WHICH GAMES I NEED TO DO FIELD PREP OR PROVIDE TEAM SNACKS FOR?
Once the parent duties are assigned by your team's manager (aka, team parent), this information will be circulated to the parents before and throughout the season.
WHAT FIELDS DOES MY CHILD'S TEAM PLAY ON?
The field for each game or practice will be communicated by your coach, either via email or TeamSnap (if used by your team).
Field locations can be found here.
WHEN DOES THE OBA BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEET?
Meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month starting at 7 p.m.
If you feel there is a topic that should be brought to the attention of the Board (as opposed to team or league specific topics where the league Commissioner is most appropriate to engage), please contact the OBA President.
