2021 FALL BALL INFORMATION

HPBA Fall Ball consists of 8U (Pee Wee rules), 10U (Bantam rules) and 12U (Midget rules) divisions – ages are based on players’ ages as of May 1, 2020 – in other words, the “baseball age” they played at this summer.

8U games will be played at 10:00 a.m.  10U games will be played at 12:00  12U games will be played at 2:30

The tentative start date will be Saturday, August 28 with the top four teams in each division playing in the playoffs on Saturday, October 23. Rain outs will not be rescheduled.  

REGISTERING YOUR TEAM

HPBA Fall Ball is “full team” registrations only - no individual player sign-ups.  It is the responsibility of each coach to field their team as HBPA association will not roster a team for you. Rosters must have a minimum of 12 players and a maximum of 15. Team registration fee is $1,000 and should be paid when registering your team. All confirmed Fall Ball players who were not registered as HPBA players for the summer 2021 season will be asked to complete a registration process.

Currently we are only accepting registrations from Hamlin Park coaches. If any of the 8 slots are not filled by July 31, we will open it up to non-Hamlin Park teams. Once all 8 spots are filled for a particular division, registration will close for that division. 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Any players or teams who desire to “play up” in the higher aged division should reach out to the Fall Ball Director ahead of time with any questions.

It is the responsibility of each coach to obtain uniforms and hats for their team.  Players can use the pants they wore for this past season.

During fall ball we will still adhere to all Park District COVID guidelines.
