As the community looks forward to the Spring approaching and the Summer ahead, the Rockridge area baseball/softball registrations have opened up. We encourage all families with children interested in playing softball or baseball to sign up. Deadline is March 12th. Late registrations will be placed on a waiting list and may not be placed on a team. If they are placed on team, a late registration fee will be assessed. Please visit: www.rockridgeball.com If you have participated last year, then you will have received an email with registration information and directions. If this is your first year with the program, thank you for joining the fun, and you can use the website to register (www.rockridgeball.com). One thing to consider as you sign up your players, we will need coaches for all the teams. This takes the community and volunteers to help make this a fun and successful summer. While registering, there is a place to indicate you’d like to Coach or help coach a team. As a coach, you can chose available practice times and help guide the youth to being great people, as well as good ball players.
