Our fall program is highly recommended for players looking for physical activity, having fun and to develop baseball skills. It is also a great opportunity for players that are advancing from the 60’/70’ diamond to get orientated to the larger 90’ MLB sized playing field at the Recreational and/ or Tournament levels. Typically in the fall program, teams compete in an eight week schedule among teams from within our local district (Lower Gwynedd, Horsham, Hatboro, Abington and Plymouth for example) or tournaments beginning after Labor Day concluding at the end of October. It is also flexible with expanded rosters allowing players to participate in multiple activities. Teams are formed in August. Games begin in early September (usually the week after Labor Day).
