MARBLEHEAD -- Youth league news dominated the sparse sports file for the week of Sept. 21-27, with no Marblehead High School games reported by ArbiterLive for the period.

YOUTH LEAGUES -- Marblehead Youth Baseball (MYB), a nonprofit founded in 1952, says it is entering its 74th season. The organization describes itself as volunteer-led, with more than 100 coaches, parents and community members running programs for close to 400 players, boys and girls ages 5 to 15, in developmental, recreational and competitive divisions. MYB is affiliated with Babe Ruth/Cal Ripken Baseball and plays its home games at two longtime town venues, Gatchell Playground and Seaside Park. The group's site described the program as central to fostering "skill development, confidence, teamwork, and a lifelong love of baseball" in town.

No new developments were reported this week from Marblehead Boys Youth Lacrosse or Marblehead's Patch sports page beyond previously noted season information.
