Fall Ball
What is Fall Ball?
Cottage Grove fall league fastpitch provides an opportunity for new players to learn about the game, gain experience playing fastpitch and just plain have fun. All games are double headers and will be on Sundays at noon and 1:30 or 3:00 and 4:30 and have time limits of 65 minutes. This is fall ball; we play rain, snow or shine. Umpires and coaches will determine play at the fields. We have no time to make up games, so we will play the games if at all possible.
Cost
Cost is $85 per player. Players registering after July 29 will be charged a $15 late fee.
Player Selection
Players will be selected from the pool of available players ranked by the level they played at during the 2012 season in the following manner: traveling players remaining at an age level (green team, white team, then black team), followed by traveling players new to the age level (green team, white team, then black team) and then players in the In House program in order by age and experience.

Fall Ball News
Let us know about your season
The end of the season parent surveys for the In House leagues and Traveling teams are now available. Before we put summer behind us, please take a few moments to reflect on the past season and let us know what you liked and what you didn't like, what we did well and where we can improve. We will use this information to improve the program for the future; based on your suggestions and will also factor information provided into the selection of coaches for the coming years. Names are collected on the surveys only for the purpose of validation and will be kept confidential and not assoicated with any of your replies, so please speak freely. We know we aren't doing everything perfectly, but with your help, we can strive to improve this program for the 500 girls that play each season.
