About MBSC

MBSC Mission

The Montclair Baseball and Softball Club is a non-profit organization which  provides Montclair youth with quality instruction and the opportunity to play baseball and softball. It is the Club’s philosophy that a sports program, while being fun, should also impart important life lessons and help promote the development of good character. We encourage the development of the skills and confidence of all of the players, while continuing to promote an understanding and acceptance of a team concept. 

No child is denied the opportunity to participate due to an inability to pay and each year we provide either partial or total scholarship to families in need.  The club is run through a largely volunteer effort and relies on the generosity of donors to help subsidize expenses.

A bit of our history.....

This not-for-profit, community organization was founded in 1997 when it organized a  single U10 Travel Baseball Team. Today the MBSC manages programs in which more than  1,000 Montclair kids participate each year.

These progams include 8 travel Baseball teams, American Legion teams, 4 travel softball teams, 16 Coach Pitch recreational teams, a T-Ball program for boys and girls, a Middle School baseball league, several fall baseball and softball teams and numerous instructional clinics.
