Fall baseball is about players getting extra playing time beyond their normal spring/summer seasons. Fall is non-competitive at every age level. Games are played, and score may be kept, but there are no standings, no "first places", etc. RELAX AND ENJOY YOURSELF!

Players generally play in a division that they will play in the NEXT spring season. Age range for the Fall is 5 and up, including Clinic tee-ball and coach pitch, and Intramural for ages 7 and up. See Age Chart under Player Registration to verify your age and sign up.

Please see the FAQ at the bottom of this page,
or contact the Fall Baseball Director for more information.

> INTRAMURAL 13&UP and HIGH SCHOOL ELIGIBLE - Our teams play games against other organizations in and around Anne Arundel County. Practies and Home Games are at Northeast High School. For more information on the high school eligible teams, contact Tom Caines at 410-255-7229.

Practices are usually on weeknights and will start in late August or early September. Games are usually on Sunday afternoons and will be played in September and October.

What is the difference between the Fall and Spring seasons? Fall baseball is about players getting extra playing time beyond their normal spring/summer seasons. Fall is non-competitive at every age level. Games are played, and score may be kept, but there are no standings, no "first places", etc. RELAX AND ENJOY YOURSELF!

Are there Clinic, Intramural, and Travel programs? Yes. Clinic teams (5 through 8 years old) will play an "in-house" schedule with all games at Havenwood Park, and possibly some "cross-over" games with other organizations if available. Intramural and Travel teams will play in an Anne Arundel County league that plays home games in Pasadena, and away games in Glen Burnie, Severna Park, etc.

What date is used to determine my child's playing age?  Fall leagues are designed to prepare for the next spring season, so April 30 of the next year is used to determine playing age.

Can I move my child to another division based on his individual skill and experience? Yes. We recommend everyone play at their "Next Season Age", but we may allow some players to play again at their "Last Season Age" to gain more experience before moving up. Safety for all is paramount in making these decisions.

How are teams formed? Player evals are not held, and all player requests are generally honored if possible, but we do reserve the right to place players so everyone has an enjoyable season. This may be based on our knowledge of the skill level of returning players.

Do we get uniforms? Yes. Shirts and hats are provided, but you will need to supply your own pants and socks. We may have pants and sock available for sale from our inventory. You will receive them just before games begin.

What other equipment do we need to provide? Each player should have his/her own fielding glove. Gloves do not need to be expensive, but should not be plastic, and they should be sized to fit your child's hand. Plastic soccer or baseball cleats are recommended. Again, cleats do not need to be expensive. An age appropriate bat, and batting helmet, are optional. Each team will be provided with a couple bats and batting helmets.

When do PRACTICES start? How often? What days are they on? Most teams will start practicing in late August or the first week of September. You should get a phone call from a team manager in mid-late August letting you know your schedule. Most teams practice once a week on a weeknight and maybe one on a weekend before games begin. Each team will have a different schedule that will repeat each week. There is no way to predict the practice schedule until after teams are sorted.

When do GAMES start? How often? What days are they on? Games start in early September (usually first weekend after Labor Day) and end last week of October. You can expect 1 games a week. Clinic games are usually on a weeknight, and all others are usually on Sunday afternoons.

Where are the games and practices held? Home games will be played at Havenwood Park for 12U and below, and Poplar Ridge Park or Northeast HS for 14U and above. Practices will take place at these same fields.

Will we get to use the batting cage? Yes. Each team will have scheduled times to use the cage as a team. There will also be free time available, but players will have to coordinate with a manager or board member to open it up and supervise its use.

Will there be trophies? Traditionally, we only supply trophies in the Fall season for the clinic teams.

Do I have to work in the concessions stand? Yes. If your team is the home team at Havenwood Park, your team is REQUIRED to send one person to the concessions building whenever the concession stand is open. Your manager or team parent will make a schedule. Assuming one parent to every player, and 10 games of which only 5 are home - then you should only have to work one time for half a game the entire season. That's it!

Who takes care of the fields? We do! That means you and us together. Please help your manager and team coaches and ask them what you can do to help them. Don't just bring your kids and drop them off. If its been raining recently, some work will have to be done in order to play.
