2023 Fall Ball

Welcome to Fall Ball 2023! Registration is Open!

The 'season’ dates are Sundays from 9/10 - 10/29

The Fall Ball program is a Sunday Training and Development (TAD) program that is non-competitive. The focus is on development of skills and game knowledge for kids who want to get ready for the Spring season. It's low key and fun. Also, this is a time to get some new and returning Volunteer Coaches into the fold to learn along with the kids.

Specific practice or game times are dependent on participation levels and field availability. Majors and Minors teams may offer optional practices during the week.

Fall Ball Levels:

• AA Coach Pitch - introduction/practice hitting live pitching and developing game skills. Prior experience in tee ball.

• AAA Machine Pitch - introduction/practice hitting off the "Blue Flame" pitching machine we use in our AAA division. Prior experience in AA.

• Entering Minors - intro to live kid pitching and hitting. Prior experience AAA.

• Returning Minors - kids looking to tune their skills after playing in Minors in the Spring 2023 season.

• Majors - introduction to Majors level play and a tune up for kids who played Majors in the Spring 2023 season.

These programs generally cover kids League Ages 7-12 years. League age is as of 8/31/2023. (We must use the 2023 age chart as required by Little League and our registration system)

Note: Minors and Major Divisions in the Spring season are drafted to group kids at similar skill levels. The participation in a Fall Ball division doesn't guarantee placement in the Spring division, but the practice sure helps :-)

AAA Machine Pitch and AA Coach pitch are fun, clinic-style format practices designed to work on improving baseball skills. All sessions are at Mary E Silveira Elementary.

Minors and Majors play interleague scrimmages with other leagues typically Novato N, Novato S, West Marin, Ross Valley, Twin Cities, Sausalito/Marin City, Mill Valley, and Tiburon (expect 4 home games and 4 away games). We will use Gallinas Field for most levels for home games and travel within Marin to road games.
