T-Ball and Challenger Baseball use batting tee’s and or coach pitch. The other divisions all have players pitch. The number of teams fielded in each division depends on the number of players registered with the league. Players are placed on teams through the draft process if they are new to the league, or are eligible to move to the next division. There are no tryouts for league play. Players whose parents or guardians have volunteered for key positions will be placed on the respective teams. Siblings eligible for the same league will be placed on the same team if the parents desire. If eligible by age, players will remain on the same team as the prior year. The league does not honor requests for special placement of players on teams.

All players are encouraged to try all fielding positions, players get equal playing time, and concepts of baseball education and fun are stressed to all players.

 

Practices are arranged by the managers in spring and are held during the month of April and May and possibly continuing into the season. Exhibition games are scheduled by the division presidents and played during the spring. Season schedules will be distributed by managers and coaches. Each team will generally play two games per week throughout the months of May, June, and July. Midway through the season in June, the Annual CSFLBA All-Star games are played. Following the regular season, in late July, there is a playoff and World Series games for the hardball divisions.
