The local ball diamonds are starting to see action as the North Dufferin Baseball League season starts May 7.
At a recent league meeting, membership approved the 2016 26-game schedule for the 14 senior teams and an 18-game schedule for the four-team junior division.
New additions to the league include two junior teams from Mansfield and New Lowell, while Midland returns after taking a year off. The Ivy Rangers are the only team back from last season and round out the division.
The senior division includes the Alliston Athletics, who competed at the junior level for the past three years, Aurora Jays, Barrie Angels, Bolton Dodgers, Clearview Orioles, Creemore Barons, Creemore Braves, Ivy Leafs, Lisle Astros, Mansfield Cubs, Midland Indians, New Lowell Knights, Nobleton Cornhuskers and Orangeville Giants.
The Angus Black Sox folded this year and are taking a one-year leave of absence.
Other events in the season are the tournament hosted by Lisle over the Victoria Day weekend, the New Lowell tournament Civic Holiday weekend and the annual league all-star game July 9, hosted in Lisle by the Astros.
A complete game schedule is available at www.ndbl.ca and is updated regularly with scores and standings throughout the season.
