The cut-off date for our age divisions is May 1st. See our League Age Determination page.
Ages 7/8, 9/10, and 11/12 have both A and AA divisions. The AA division is the more competitive division of the two.
We allow playing up by one year of age. For instance, a child that is league age 10 may play up to 11/12. A child that is league age 11 may not play up to 13/14, unless parents contact the VP of both age divisions to discuss and gain approval.
CFBBA DOES NOT allow players to play down in the next younger age division for any reason.
There are no exceptions, including any of the following:
CFBBA plays with combination age groups (5/6, 7/8, etc) that make this a safety issue.
You do not have to live in Carrollton or Farmers Branch to play in CFBBA.
We do not have residency restrictions or boundaries.
No, there are no tryouts. Players are assigned to teams based on age, availability, team demand, common schools attended, and the geographic proximity of the residences of other players on a team.
Placements begin after completion of on-time registration. Anyone registering after the on-time registration deadline is NOT guaranteed to be placed.
Contact your child’s coach ASAP so that they can communicate this to the Registration Coordinator. When this happens, we'll need approval from the coach and the parent to make the correction.
Please be sure to indicate this in the comments section when registering. We will do our best to make this happen, but we can’t make any promises.
If this isn't noted in the registration prior to the registration deadline, please reach out to the registration coordinator and make sure you get a reply to confirm this update was made. After the registration deadline, requests will not be taken/honored.
The best way to make this happen would be to reach out to one of the AA coaches and see if they have room on their roster.
You can also just sign your child up for the AA division, and they'll go into the draft.
Please be advised that if you sign a child up for the AA division, and there are no roster spots available, we will move your child to the single A division.
Coaches will contact their players by email or phone within 2-3 days after the coaches' meeting
If you are not contacted by the coach within 3-5 days after the coaches' meeting, you should contact stephanie.castro@cfbba.org.
Yes, a payment plan option is available during checkout.
The card used during checkout will be automatically charged on the payment plan due date.

Refund requests must be in writing and received prior to the close of registration.
NO REFUNDS will be issued after teams are formed.

9/10 & above can play 7 days a week. Sunday and Wednedsays are not typically games days but can be game days for rainout/make-up games
Teams typically practice 1-2 times per week.
Practice schedules depend on the coach. Coaches are responsible for the practice day, time, and location.
Teams typically play 1-2 games per week depending on the age division. Games could be scheduled on any weeknight and/or weekend. Weeknight games start as early as 6:00 PM. Saturday and Sunday games start anytime between 9:00 AM and 6:00 PM.
Schedules are completed after teams are created. While this is a time consuming process, we try to have them done as soon as possible. We try to get them posted on our league website two weeks prior to Opening Day.
As soon as we are notified by the city that fields are closed due to rain, inclement weather or unusable/unsafe field conditions we will update coaches and parents through SportsEngine text and email notification system to all members that registered.
Coaches are to email, text or call their team with information concerning rainout/rescheduled games, events and practices.
For more information, visit the Rain Out Info page.
We try our best to reschedule as many rainout games as possible.
Our ability to reschedule games depends on how many games need to be rescheduled, field availability and time remaining in the season.
We recommend each player to have their own glove, bat, batting helmet, cleats and an equipment bag. If a child does not have their own batting helmet the league can provide the coach with a batting helmet for team use.
How do I choose the right bat for my son/daughter?
To determine the correct LENGTH of the bat, have your player stand with the bat next to his/her side barrel down and rest the bat on the ground the top of the bat should rest just below the hip
To determine the correct WEIGHT of the bat, have your player - hold the bat straight out from his/her side OR straight out in front (whichever is more comfortable) if the barrel tips down then it is too heavy if he/she can hold the bat straight out for 10 seconds - then you've found the right bat!
How do I choose the right glove for my son/daughter?
This information is provided only as a guide. Results for your player may vary based on their personal preference, ability, and physical maturity.
Size for AGE or POSITION
Pocket Depth
Shallow pockets offer control, making it easier to release the ball out of the glove.
Deeper pockets are best used for outfield or infielders that are still developing proper fielding mechanics.
First Base mitts have a thin, stiff pad around the edge with padding in the palm and fingers and range from 12" to 13".
CFBBA does not provide uniforms.
Coaches are responsible for ordering uniforms, this will be an additional cost.
Typically the coach orders hats and jerseys while parents are responsible for belt, pants, and socks. Ask your coach for details.
