Fall Ball
Most of our leagues offer a fun and developmental fall ball program. If your league does not, you may play in any league which does for the fall. Registration is open at the various league sites.
Fall ball can be a lot of fun, and actually features some of the best baseball weather of the year. It's a great time for kids to work on their skills, try new positions. It's a great time to get on the mound or behind the dish. Since there are no league standings or playoffs, coaches are fully bought into the developmental mind-set. Kids who are facing a difficult try-out in the spring can benefit from a developmental fall. Coaches also understand fall is not "baseball season" so kids playing other sports can still come have some fun on the diamond.
First games are generally the weekend after Labor Day and run into mid-November.
Field space can be very limited in the fall due to other sports, so leagues will run out of spots.
