The Fall Ball is a developmental season which runs from just after Labour Day until approximately October 15th (Mother nature Permitting)  Players are separated into age based divisions from Rookie Ball to Teenage (Juniors and Seniors).  Evaluations usually occur prior to Labour Day.  Teams are formed with kids from multiple associations across Little League Alberta Baseball District 3 (North Calgary)

What are the Little League Age brackets?

Little League has chosen for baseball to align kids ages around a September to August Calendar span to ensure kids particiapting at the Little League World Series are the appropriate age for their respective division.  This differs from other sports in the Calgay area - however as a Little League Chartered Association we are required to follow the age brackets as they are established in the Little League Rule book

Those age brackets can be found here.  

For Fall Ball you can register your player in either this years age bracket - or the subsequent year's age bracket. This means that your player has the option of plying in next years age division if htey would be aging up in order to get used to the reules, etc..  Please note you MUST make this decision when you register your player - once teams are created we can not guarantee we will be able to move any kids between divisions.  Please note once registration closes we DO NOT provide refund for any reason.
