2025 Fall Ball Season

Our 2025 Fall Ball Registration is now open! With two programs, our High Peformance Fall Ball and our Intro to Cal Ripken Fall Ball program, we offer professional coaching at both levels.

Intro to Fall Ball Program:

Just like our Cal Ripken High Performance Program, our Introduction program offers players an opportunity to be seen and trained by professional coaches with a common goal to better the baseball culture in Alberta. This program is for 8-9 year olds and will focus on skill development and getting kids prepared for real baseball, lead offs, and pick offs.

Players participating in the Introduction to Cal Ripken fall league will get a head start towards being a part of a system designed to focus on development, play with like-minded peers at similar ability levels, while still staying primarily within local areas. Players will be expected to be evaluated and will be drafted onto teams with a primary focus towards development and growth, as an athlete and a person.
