Spring Baseball Rec League Notes & FAQs

Key Information:

Registration Information: Registration is NOW OPEN on our website,  www.armonkbaseball.org (click on the “Registration Info” tab) and will run through March 17th , with a $50 early bird discount automatically applied to registrations completed by February 15th.

Uniforms/ABL Fan Store: We are working to open the Uniform Store and Fan Shop ASAP, and we will send ordering information as soon as available. As always, if you have a prior year’s uniform (i.e., a blue jersey, a red jersey, gray pants and navy socks), you may use that uniform for the Spring 2024 Season.  Once open, the ABL Fan Store will have logo t-shirts, hooded sweatshirts, pull-overs and other items to support the ABL.

Season Schedule:  The 2024 Spring Recreational Baseball season will begin on Saturday, April 6th and end on Saturday, June 1st (no baseball on Memorial Day Weekend), though we may extend for some period of time to compensate for weather-related cancellations. 

Practice + Game Schedule by Division: Please refer to the chart below for detailed information by division.  As always, we do our best to avoid conflicts with other activities, but with limited field space for baseball, it’s not always possible.  We appreciate your understanding.

Spring Travel Baseball: As in prior years, the Spring Travel Season will run parallel with the ABL Recreational Season and will be administered by the Greater Hudson Valley Baseball League.  Teams for Spring 2024 were set in Fall 2023.  Information regarding tryouts for the Fall 2024/Spring 2025 Travel Teams will be made available later in the season, but are expected to occur in early/mid June.  If you have any questions regarding travel baseball, please reach out to Chris Cusmano at [email protected] or to the ABL at [email protected] .

Volunteers Needed: As a reminder, ABL is a 100% volunteer-run organization.  We thank you for your support and we are always looking for additional volunteers (as managers, coaches or members of the ABL Board).  If you are interested in helping and potentially joining our team, please email [email protected]!
