Columbia Falls Youth Baseball 2016

We are super excited and gearing up for the upcoming 2016 baseball season!

The Columbia Falls Baseball Association is made up of volunteers who are passionate about bringing a fun and educational baseball experience to children 4 to 12 years of age. These young players compete in 4 different leagues according to age (T-Ball, Rookie, Minor & Major).

Columbia Falls Baseball provides opportunities to be involved in baseball activities starting in February with weekly Winter Workouts for the Minor and Major Leagues. April brings the regular season for all leagues and continues on thru the beginning of June. Finally, the All-Star League (a travel team picked on individual assessment through try-outs) begins in June and lasts through July.

Winter Workouts will be held on Mondays for the Minor League and Thursdays for the Majors.

The first Minor League Winter Workout will start on Monday, February 15th and Thursday, February 18th for the Major League. All Winter Workouts will last from 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm in the Glacier Gateway Gym. For all Minor / Major League players to participate in workouts, he / she must have a Waiver signed prior to his / her attending.

Minor / Major League Assessments will be held Sunday, March 13, 2016 at Glacier Gateway.

The Minor League assessments are from 1:00pm - 3:00pm and 3:30pm - 5:30pm for the Major League.

From this point, teams will be created and coaches assigned. Each Minor and Major League Coach is given 3 time slots a week to hold practices at the Sapa/Johnsrud Complex. T-Ball and Rookie Teams will hold practices at either Mosquito Flats or Hoerner Fields.

All games / practices for our T-Ball division will be played at either Mosquito Flats or Hoerner Fields. Rookie Division will be played at either Sapa / Johnsrud Complex or Hoerner. Minor League will be played at the Sapa / Johnsrud Complex, and Major League games will be played at either the Sapa / Johnsrud Fields or at the field complex in Whitefish.

This year Columbia Falls Baseball will once again be selling Worlds Finest Chocolates as our Fundraiser. An extra $20.00 has been added to this year's Registration Fee. Each player will receive 20 chocolate bars with their uniforms that can be sold or eaten. The choice is yours! You have the option to purchase more chocolates in case quantities on your registration form.

We are looking forward to another great baseball season. Let’s Play Ball!!!
