The goal of the Blaze program is to provide Canon Mac baseball players the opportunity to play alongside their friends in an AAU-style travel baseball program.  This program prides itself on exceptional training and offering a higher level of competition at a minimum cost to our families.  All tuition money goes toward our players and teams with no money withheld by CMYBA.  The following is based on the 2025-2026 season and exact costs will vary from year to year, depending on the cost of training, uniforms/equipment, and tournaments.  Tournaments are played from April through July with optional Fall tournaments as well.  Tryouts for the following season are held in July.  There is no cost to tryout, but each player must be registered thru the organization’s website prior to attending.  Information regarding tryout dates/times will be communicated accordingly.

2025-2026 Tuition: 8U - $1,000, 9U - $1,200, 10U - $1,200, 12U - $1,200, 13U - $1,200

2025-2026 Tuition Payment Schedule: $100 non-refundable deposit is due upon accepting a roster spot in August, followed by monthly payments from October - March for the remaining tuition.

Items Included in Blaze Tuition:

• 12 weeks of winter workouts at Bianco School of Baseball.  Once weather permits, each Blaze team has access to Falconi Fields for 2 practices per week (Wednesday and Sunday)
• 2 jerseys and 2 hats
• Blaze batting helmet with logo, player last name, and number
• Blaze bat bag embroidered with Blaze logo, player last name, and number
• Blaze practice shirt
• Tournament fees (8 tournament max)

Each year, our 12U Blaze team has the opportunity to attend a tournament at Cooperstown Dreams Park in New York.  Additional Cooperstown fundraising opportunities and tuition apply for this team.

In order to be eligible for the Blaze program, each player must reside in the Canon Mac School District and participate in the CMYBA Spring Rec Baseball Program (the fee for this program is separate from that of the Blaze tuition).

Three to four optional fundraisers are held during the fall and winter months to help offset some of the tuition cost to families.  Proceeds go directly to each family’s tuition account.  Fundraisers may vary from year to year with examples such as: mums and cornstalks, Christmas wreaths, pies, and pepperoni rolls.
