FALL BALL IS NOW OPEN!

2025 NSBA Fall Ball Registration is Now Open

North Shore Baseball Association is offering Fall Ball for 9U, 11U, 13U, 15U, and 18U divisions. This is open to all players, including those outside the NSBA community.

The fall season places players who just completed the second year of a division and moves them into the next division to give them exposure in advance of the 2026 Spring Season. For example, a player who was a second year, born in 2012, 13U player in spring/summer 2025 would play Fall Ball in the 15U division.

Registration is open from Sunday, July 27, 2025 to Monday, September 1, 2025. Register ASAP, as space is limited.

For details and to register into one of the divisions, please select one of the tabs above.

The fall season is less structured than spring or summer. There are no team standings, more positional opportunities and rosters are created based on availability.

To cancel registration for a player and request a refund, you must submit your request by email to NSBA Registrar

Refund Deadlines:
  • Full refund, minus $25 administration fee, prior to September 3rd.
  • No refunds after September 2nd.
