Cal Ripken Baseball - Majors

Thanks for a GREAT 2008 season. See you next year!

Our Cal Ripken or Majors division is for boys and girls ages 11and 12. The child must be 11 years old by May 1, 2008. This competitive division plays in an in house Narberth league and well as intraleague and tournament baseball. For the tournament team, the season continues through district playoffs and can culminate with the Babe Ruth World Series.

To be eligible to play the player needs to be 11 years old by May 1,2008.

The in house league is played down at the Narberth playground on Saturday with the first game starting at 10:00am and the last game finishing at 2:30. The intraleague games are played down Narbeth Park or over in Havertown at West Gate field. The league will run from April 5, 2008 through June 7, 2008.

The season runs from mid-March (weather permitting), through June. Before the teams are drafted, there will be a skills assessment down at Narberth playground. Coaches will assess the players. The skills assessment will take place on Saturday, March 15, 2008 down at the Narberth playground from 10:00am until 12:00 noon. Your child will be assigned to a team after the skills assessment. We do not honor teammate requests.

The cost is $100 per child. There is no family rate for this league. If you have a child playing t-shiet and a child playing softball, each program is separate and has a separate fee.
