Travel Vision
The AYRA Athletics Travel Baseball Program is run as a developmental program designed to provide advanced skilled instruction and elevated competition for those players possessing exceptional ability, positive team orientation, motivation to learn and the capability to make a significant commitment to the Travel Baseball Program. The travel program allows kids the opportunity to play competitive baseball at a higher level to commensurate with their abilities and within the limits of their love for the game. AYRA currently participates in the Mid-Atlantic Baseball Association (MABA) which travels to fields within and around the Howard County area.
We have a great community of kids, convenient fields and experience to help a young team get started and become successful. Travel teams are formed when a travel team manager has been identified for an age group. Apply to become a Travel Team Manager: Travel Manager Application or contact Bob Kula ([email protected]) with any questions.
We would love to hear from you if you share our vision!

MID-ATLANTIC BASEBALL ASSOCIATION (MABA) PLAYER RELEASE/TRANSFER NOTIFICATION FORM
AYRA Baseball would like to make you aware of MABA's policy regarding existing MABA players attending tryouts for another MABA team. This policy has been in place for a number of years and this year is no different.
Per MABA policy, anyone who played for an MABA team in the Spring 2021 season is required to email a completed MABA Player Release/Transfer Notification Form to [email protected] prior to attending another MABA team's tryout.
AYRA Baseball requests that parents of players required to submit a form bring a printout of the email submission as confirmation of their compliance with this MABA policy before participating in an AYRA Tryout.
