JYA Fall Baseball, Quickball, & Softball 2024
Registration is OPEN
Hello JALL & JYA Families!
Quickball:
This year JALL is offering Quickball in the Fall again. This 7 week program will run on Sundays at noon or 1pm from September 8-October 20. The program will be at the Abington Friends school. Please consider coaching and helping this program, since it is heavily volunteer reliant. Space will be limited this first year so sign up as soon as possible.
Baseball:
The purpose of fall baseball is to afford players of all skill levels an opportunity to continue to build their skills and compete in an organized travel baseball league. Above all else fall ball should be fun.
Compared with our more competitive spring and summer programs, coaches will be sensitive to the fact that parents place priority on schoolwork and that some players will be participating in other traditional fall sports. Fall ball games are scheduled so they don't conflict with other sports. Most games are either Friday nights, or Sunday afternoons. Traditional fall sports usually play on Saturday mornings.
Fall ball players get a boost in confidence when moving up to a new level. Transition players almost always need some time to adjust to the next level, whether it's batting from a machine, facing live kid pitching, or adapting to steals and pick-offs on a new size field, there is always a learning curve for any player moving up to the next level. Fall ball players get a jump on the curve by playing at the next level before most of the other players.
If you feel your son is not ready to move up divisions please contact us to discuss the right spot for them.
Here are the eligibility dates of softball:
SB Rookies 8U: Birthyears 2015 - 2016
