DETERMINING AGE CLASSIFICATION

In fall ball, USA Softball registers players at the level that they will be playing in for next season. Use the dates below as a reference. 18U players will be combined with 16U. If communities don't have an age group we will consider allowing them to play with an appropriate division. For Example, if a community does not have a 14U team, RYFSA would consider allowing a first YeaR 14U (2006) to play 12u, however a second year 14U (2005) would need to play 16U.

DEADLINE FOR NON-Rochester Teams TO REGISTER FOR FALL BALL IS AUGUST 11, 2019

Fee: $350/team ($300 for SFC teams that played in SFC summer league. Must have 50% of returning roster)

The Registration "Fall League" is not currently available.

Individual Players Register HERE for FALL League -Registration will close AUGUST 11, 2019

This link is for individual registration for Rochester Players or for non-Rochester players looking for a team.

Teams will be formed for 8U-18U teams.

It is the intention of RYFSA to create teams by age and school boundaries, but there are at times that this is not possible. All teams will be at the discretion of the RYFSA Board. While special requests for team placement can be made, the RYFSA board reserves the right to reject these requests.
