If you create any kind of baseball content, you’re a great fit for the IBWAA. You can read all about the benefits of membership on our front page.
After you submit your payment, we will email you to welcome you into the association and make sure we have all the information we need for the directory. You will usually receive the email within 24 hours. We’ll also welcome you on Twitter so everyone else can say hello. (NOTE: We will send your “welcome” to the email address connected to your PayPal account. If that’s not the best one to use, please email us right after you join to give us your preferred email address.)
Members must be 16 years of age to join, but if you’re under 18 we ask that your parent/guardian fills out this consent form, then emails the completed form to ibwaa2020@gmail.com.
Other questions? Contact us. We’ll be happy to answer.
IBWAA Lifetime Membership: $75.00
Code of Conduct:
The IBWAA is proud of its broad membership eligibility standards and firmly believes that diversity in writing style, point of view, team affiliation or alignment, generation, and background makes our field stronger, more vibrant, and more welcoming to the baseball public and to both aspiring and accomplished internet writers. The IBWAA encourages all of our members to support and mentor each other professionally and to promote each others’ work and expects that members’ commentary on articles, forums, and social media will be civil, constructive, and professional, if at times spirited. Members who are unable to act in a civil, constructive, and professional manner work in direct opposition to the goals and purposes of the IBWAA and the vast majority of its members; failure to conduct oneself in accordance with this standard may result in removal from the IBWAA.
