About Spring Ball
We will have 10 games for all age groups except the Rookie league (T-ball), which will have 8-10 games. After our 10 game season is over, we will have a single or double elimination tournament to determine the winner for the different age groups. The end of season tournament format is dependent on many factors (the weather being the most important).
Practices:
