[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in AZ now and my kids play baseball and softball. Teams CAN technically play year round 12 months per year here- but they usually don’t. Pre high school, most teams play fall and spring - with a 2 month break in both winter and summer (usually Dec/Jan and mid June-mid Aug or so). High school aged teams never play in winter and are off Nov-Jan or so (just conditioning). My 13yo’s team schedule this year is: Aug-Nov for fall ball, late Jan-late May for spring ball. Summer off. This is pretty typical for our area and age. My high schooler plays spring and summer ball, and a short/light fall ball schedule. Winter off. [/quote]

This is interesting and good to hear.

I was in Alaska recently and the kids have a brief summer season, short break, fall season (really late summer). Then a winter season..... because they have indoor facilities with multiple fields for the cold/snow/darkness. Those kids play a lot too.[/quote]

The college summer league in Alaska is considered the most elite of them all. [/quote]

Maybe it once was, but it's not anymore. Cape Cod is the top wooden bat collegiate league. [/quote]
