When league schedules are available, click below to find your team schedule, including field locations, by looking within the Westwood team listing by gender/grade for your team name/head coach name. The BAYS league has 53 towns, but sections are generally organized by geography, although travel can be up to 1 hour potentially. Plan to arrive at your specified field around 30 minutes prior to your game start time to allow for warm-ups and team check in. Your coach will provide you with more specific information.
