Fall Ball Details for Registrants

We are looking forward to seeing all our Fall Ball Players for the start of our program this week!

The first three practices and all five Saturday sessions will be at the Round Lake Fields, weather permitting. The last two Wednesday sessions will take place at the Chango gym (so it won't be too dark!).

Mark your calendars:
Practices, 6-7:15 -- Wed, Sept 11th, Tues 17th, Tues. 24th and Wednesdays, Oct. 2nd and 16th (note changed dates to Tuesdays)
Games, Saturday Mornings 10am-11:30 -- Sept 14th, 21st, 28th and Oct 5th and 19th

****Note -- we are purposefully skipping the week of October 7th, on account of Yom Kippur and Columbus Day. As such, no practice on Wednesday Oct 9th and no game on Saturday October 12th.

Please be prepared for each practice and game with your glove and dressed for the cooler weather. There are no uniforms this year, but if you have an old jersey, I am sure the coaches would appreciate having your last name on your shirt to help them. Players will be split into two groups, Division 1 and Division 2. All players 8 and under will be on Division 1, all players age 9 and up will be on Division 2. It doesn't matter if you played Minors or Majors this past season, you'll be split up solely by age.

On weekday practices, the groups will split into their divisions to practice as a group. Then, on Saturdays, coaches in each division will split the players up based on who is in attendance into two teams. The teams will change week to week, so you won't always have the same coach and teammates. Think of the Saturday games as more of a scrimmage.

Thank you to all our volunteers! Coaches Dimauro and Arendt will lead division 2. Coaches Sackel and DiBendetto will lead division 1. Several parents have signed up to help them and our coaches will appreciate more. Parents, if you are able to help with practices and/or games, please come with sneaks and your glove and just let the coaches you are here to help.

Thank you and if you have any questions, feel free to email us.
