Summer Baseball Goals and Purpose
The goal of summer baseball is to develop the values of teamwork, sportsmanship, and fair play for players from ages 8-20 in a highly competitive and demanding schedule of games. Baseball teams frequently play 3 or 4 games per week against teams from other towns in the greater Boston area. Additional practices are held at the discretion of the manager.
BBRBS strives to place teams in leagues where players will be challenged, enabling them to develop their playing skills to their full potential. All players are required to try out for the teams, the rosters are limited, and playing time is not guaranteed or equal, but is dependent on many things including attendance at practice. Summer baseball requires a serious commitment by players and parents.
Overview
The summer schedule will run dependent on the specific league a team is in and whether the team qualifies for post-season tournament play. Overall, when both practices and games are included, the summer is a relatively intensive program. Recognizing that this is the vacation season, we do make modest allowances for family vacations without jeopardizing a youngster's roster spot. However, the commitment to the leagues is a significant one, and we request that longer vacations be reserved for later in August when the season has ended. Parents and players are asked to be realistic about the significance of this commitment. Summer ball isn't for everyone.
