    Search For Former ENYTB Players
    By Age, Residence and Position Played

    Teams come and go but players remain forever in ENYTB's league-wide player database. Many times a player's ENYTB team will disband but the player will remain interested in continuing in the league if he can find a team interested in him. Other times the player may have no further interest in playing baseball or is participating in another league. Thus, this list is not as reliable as the league's Free Agent Board (Players Actively Seeking A Team) for finding players motivated to return to the league but it is certainly worth a try.

    Login and go to:

    My Team > Unrestricted Free Agents and select any of the three available UFA lists.

    You will be provided an alphabetical list of every former ENYTB player (unrestricted free agent (UFA)) that is age-eligible for your team. This list will be sorted by age of player as well e.g., all players same age as your team, one year younger, or two years younger.

    You will be shown the player's last known residency and public school district as well as the positions that he previously played. There also is a secondary search function that lets you re-sort the list by position. Many times, coaches will find a player on this list that he has knowledge of and the list serves as a reminder that this person is eligible to play on his team.

    Player contact info is not provided on the website because ENYTB is not comfortable making such information available on an anonymous basis. If you wish to contact a player, contact your League Navigator for additional info. Limit three players per request.

  • How Do League Participants Retrieve Their Own Password?

    Lost Password?

    enytb.com allows users to retrieve their own password at any time.

    To retrieve your own password:

    Go to the very top of the home page and click on the [Login] button. In the spawned modal, click [Lost Password?]

    Enter your ENYTB registered email address;

    Click the applicable user ID (if there is more than one).

    The system will instantly email your password to your registered email address.

    NOTE: If you get a message stating that you aren't a registered user, the system is telling you that it does not recognize the email address you have entered i.e., it is not of a valid email address/password pairing. This would happen if you have multiple email address and are entering a different email address from what you are registered under in the system. It could also mean you have typed in your email address incorrectly or that it was originally entered incorrectly to the system. If you believe it to be the latter, please contact your league navigator for assistance. If you don't know who your league navigator is, contact Ed Frye at 518-356-9089.
