***Newington Fall Travel Baseball***

We have organized an all-new league to provide a safe, developmental, and competitive travel league for our Little League players aged 7-11 (12 year old players are encouraged to play "up" on the big field to prepare for next season, see exceptions on GHFBL site). Please read detailed information about the 8U, 10U, and 12U divisions on our website: GHFBL Info. Each town will be submit and adhere to a COVID-19 protocol. Newington's COVID-19 protocol can be found on our website.

The season will run from late August to late October. This league will be competitive while focusing on development of all players, fundamentals, and FUN! Games are typically played on Saturdays AND Sundays to avoid weeknight travel. Travel will be limited to towns in the Greater Hartford area. In-town practices will be held during the week. Note: All registrations MUST be completed by August 16th, there will be no exceptions for late sign-ups.

All players will sign up under this "Fall Baseball" registration; the teams and age divisions will be organized according to league regulations. For the safety and enjoyment of our players, team rosters will be limited to 13 players each. The league reserves the right to cap registration numbers and/or use assessment information from coaches in order to maintain 13 player rosters. Also, for the safety of our teams during travel competition: players are expected to be able to hit live pitching, properly field and catch, and pay attention during gameplay. Note: any player that is not placed on a roster will be refunded 100% of registration fee.

Please sign up ASAP so that we can properly plan for the appropriate amount of teams at each age division. Thank you!
