ABOUT SUMMERLAND
JAYS BASEBALL
Summerland Minor Baseball Association, or SMBA, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to introducing and growing the game of baseball for boys and girls in Summerland, BC. Our goal is to create a positive, inclusive space where young athletes can build skills, grow in confidence, and learn life lessons that extend far beyond the field.
We focus on more than just the basics of the game, we’re here to help kids thrive. Through quality coaching, a strong emphasis on fundamentals, and a commitment to sportsmanship, we aim to develop well-rounded athletes who understand the value of teamwork, discipline, and respect.
Since our Little League was founded in 1958, SMBA has helped develop thousands of players, many of whom have continued their baseball journey. We're proud of the community we've built and the role we play in supporting young athletes both on and off the field.
Whether your child is brand new to baseball or looking to take their game to the next level, we’re excited to welcome your family to the SMBA team!

Board of Directors
Every year in November a volunteer Board of Directors is elected at the Annual General Meeting to help guide all baseball activities including registration, player evaluations, and coach selection. Once the season begins, the Executive sets the rules of league play, organizes volunteers for field maintenance and coordinates Opening Day. Any member of the public living within the Summerland boundaries can stand for election to the Executive.
