Directory

North Oregon Babe Ruth (ages 13-18): On its South-most boundary, North Oregon consists of the following counties (and all areas North thereof): Lincoln, Polk, Marion, Jefferson, Deschutes, and roughly the Northern "half" of both Harney and Malheur counties. Cities North of, and including Venator (Harney) and Crowley Malheur) are "North" Oregon. All portions of Oregon that are North of this "South-most" boundary are within North Oregon Babe Ruth's geographic boundaries.

North Oregon Babe Ruth also includes a small portion of western Idaho (adjacent to Baker and Malheur counties) and a small portion of Southern Washington (roughly following a parallel line that extends eastward from Hood River to Boardman).

Note: The various leagues in North Oregon Babe Ruth are listed both directly after the name of each District Commissioner AND alphabetically at the end of this directory. The two programs (age groups) that make up North Oregon Babe Ruth are: 13-15 year olds and the 16-18 year olds.

If you don't see your league area represented by a particular age group program, and you would like to start such a Babe Ruth program in your area, please contact the District Commissioner nearest your residence or the State Commissioner; all will be glad to discuss the possibility of starting such a Babe Ruth league in your area.

The directories are not meant to be exhaustive listings of all individuals in a particular group. For a more complete listing within a group, contact someone within that group.

Note: If you don't find your city or area listed in the directory (or if the above geographic boundary description is unclear), please call the District Commissioner nearest your location, or the State Commissioner. We look forward to helping you become a part of our Babe Ruth family.
