Fall Ball Guidelines
Fall Ball is a teaching season intended to allow children who want to play in the fall the opportunity to do so while keeping the skills they learned in the past sharp. It allows players who are moving up to get a taste of play they will experience at the next level in the spring. It is laid-back at most levels and, as an organization, we need to keep it that way so that it continues to grow and BHAA continues to grow.

Each team plays a maximum of two games per weekend, preferably doubleheaders to allow players to spend time with their families.

All practices are at the complete and total discretion of the head coach. If the coach is unable to hold a practice and wants to have an assistant run a practice, that head coach still needs to notify Gayle Laughlin, fall ball coordinator, as to when that practice will be.

The Junior, Senior and Pony levels must adhere to pitching rules used during the spring season with regard to rest and pitch count. If any coach needs a set of these rules, they can be obtained through Gayle Laughlin.

How Does Fall Ball Work?
During fall ball, players typically play at the level they will during the 2012 spring season. For instance, a farm leaguer just turning 8 will play farm fall ball, but a player just turning 11 would play senior little league in the fall. This guideline allows players to get a jump on the level of play as they prepare for the next regular season.
