FALL SEASON BASEBALL
Fall Baseball at Eastern is an instructional league which provides an excellent learning environment to introduce your child to baseball, improve their skills and prepare them for the next level up. Fall ball is more relaxed and less of a time commitment than the Spring Season. Players play in the division they will be eligible for the following Spring season. We have three divisions including:
- Tee Ball for current league ages 4-5 (will be 5-6 next spring) (9/1/18 - 8/31/20 birthdays)
- Coach Pitch for current league ages 6-7 (will be 7-8 next spring) (9/1/16 - 8/31/18)
- Player Pitch for current league ages 8-11 (will be 9-12 next spring) (9/1/12 - 8/31/16)
FRIEND REQUESTS
All players will be assigned to teams on a random basis, with the objective of balancing age and experience on each team. Team requests can be submitted during registration, but we cannot guarantee that all requests will be accommodated. Requests are prioritized in the order they are received.
UNIFORMS/EQUIPMENT
All players will need a baseball glove and baseball shoes (plastic sole cleats). Many players prefer to use their own baseball bat and helmet, although the individual teams have extras available that the players may also use. Many players also like to have an equipment bag to carry their belongings, but this is not required. All players will need to purchase their own baseball pants, socks and belt, which are typically color-coordinated with the team jersey color. Your coach will confirm the color needed. The league will provide the jersey and hat for all players. The league highly recommends the use of protective cups and heart guards. Protective cups are required for any player playing the catcher position. Parents may also see the benefit of utilizing a mouth guard piece.
VOLUNTEERING
Eastern has a variety of volunteer opportunities available. See Volunteer Information for further details. Volunteers within our league (managers, coaches, members of the Board of Directors, and other persons, volunteer or hired workers who provide regular service to the league and/or have repetitive access to or contact with players or teams), MUST submit annually a Little League Volunteer Application. You can register to volunteer through the registration process.
