⚾ Games and Practices

Every player will be assigned to a team.

Each team has one practice and at least one game per week.

Practice days/times are set by the head coach based on their schedule and field availability.

Final schedules are typically set by late March.

If you have a night your child cannot practice, note it in the “Other Requests” section during registration.

Requests may be honored for non-draftable divisions (see below).

Game Information

Games are generally held on Saturdays.

Older divisions begin weeknight games early in the season.

Younger divisions may add weeknight games starting mid-May through June.

All teams will play a minimum of 10 games.

Older divisions (Baseball: 9U–12U, Softball: 10U–12U) include playoff games starting in June.

🧢 Team Formation & Draft Process

Starting with 8U Boys (2nd Grade) and 10U Softball, teams are formed through a draft to maintain balanced competition.

Important:

No friend or coach requests are allowed for:

Baseball: 8U, 9U, 10U, 12U

Softball: 10U, 12U

The draft promotes even talent distribution and helps players meet new friends across all five local elementary schools (Park, Newbridge, Martin, Dinklemeyer, and Saw Mill), building connections before middle school.
