Fall Ball is a short 6-week season allowing kids to continue playing baseball and softball in the Fall. We are targeting to assign teams around August 19th/20th. Coaches will reach out to their team shortly after that with the game/practice schedule.
All players will receive a hat and T-shirt with registration. Teams will be built based on previous seasons played at Franklin, friends requests, schools attending with the ultimate goal to create as must balance as possible and fill teams out appropriately. We will not hold evaluations.
Games will be played at the Franklin fields, with games at WB Drake Sports Park, St. Owens Church, Birmingham Schools fields, and any inter-league play fields (if we do inter-league play). There may be inter-league play with Lakes Baseball and S. Farmington There will be no playoffs in Fall Ball.
Please see the league and typical schedule info below. Depending on final registrations, weather, umpires and coach availability some schedules might need to be revised. Updates would be communicated.
For all divisions except for T-Ball, practices will start the week of August 26th, 2024, with games for all divisions (including T-Ball) starting on September 9th. The season will wrap up no later than October 20th, 2024.
