Major Division
Any Questions Contact VP Majors - Joe Lettieri
This Division is a competitive instructional program for 11 & 12 year olds. The Division stresses competition while still providing instruction where needed to improve players’ skills. Cal Ripken League Babe Ruth Baseball Major League and SPFYBA rules are followed. All players will play a minimum of 3 innings in each 6 inning game. The Division is divided into American and National Leagues, and at the end of the regular season there is a playoff and a Championship Series to determine the overall Major Division Champion. There is an All Star game with the players selected by the managers. Regular season games will be played weeknights and Saturdays, with rain outs played on Sundays. Games are played at Booth Field, and we may have some games at Memorial Field depending on the number of teams in the Division. Parents are expected to help in the concession stand at Booth Field during their home games, and will be scheduled by each team. All players in this division are drafted to teams by Managers based on a brief tryout.
Booth Field Batting Cages
The batting cages at Booth Field are up and ready to be used. I will be in charge of assigning time slots to all teams in the Junior, Major and Senior Divisions. Cages will be assigned in slots of one (1) hour-once a week per team starting at 4pm. The cages will not be available during the week once the season starts from 5p-6p because that time slot is reserved for those teams playing at Booth Field. If you wish to utilize the batting cages, you must e-mail your request to doublej13@verizon.net and include the date, time, team and division (please do not call my cell to reserve time slots). I will then respond with a confirmation e-mail and post your request on the master sheet (see "Booth Cages" tab to your left). Please check the master sheet before requesting slots to ensure slot is available. Do not use the cage if you do not have it reserved. Opening Day is April 5th for Juniors and Majors. Opening Day for Senior Division is April 12th.
Good luck to all teams during the season.
