Fall Select

Summer All-Star teams have the option to continue into the fall season as a Fall Select team. This program is intended to provide continued development and team continuity while remaining aligned with West Raleigh Baseball.

Program Structure & Expectations

Participation: Optional and determined at the team level.

Communication: Head Coaches must communicate fall plans and tentative schedules to families by the end of June.

Commitment: Fall Select is a supplemental season and not a replacement for Fall Rec participation.

Scheduling

Fall Select events must not conflict with West Raleigh Fall Rec practices or games. Fall Rec takes precedence in the event of a conflict.

Teams are encouraged to schedule tournaments around the three designated Fall Rec “off weekends.”

Practice & Tournament Guidelines

General Schedule: 1–2 practices per week and 2–4 tournaments during the fall season.

Logistics: Teams are responsible for scheduling their own tournaments and any additional practice field needs.

Field Usage

West Raleigh will provide limited field availability, primarily on Sundays, once Fall Rec schedules are finalized.

Field assignments are first-come, first-served. Individual teams must secure additional field space if needed.

Season Timeline

All Fall Select activities must conclude by the first week of November (Nov. 7-8).

Roster Considerations

Teams must consist of players from the Summer All-Star rosters. Additional players must have participated in the current year’s Spring rec season.

Coaches will communicate expectations regarding participation for players balancing Fall Rec and other sports.

Cost Structure

Fall Select Fee: $50 per player (covers insurance, West Raleigh branding, and limited field access).

Team Responsibilities: Tournament entry fees and additional field rentals.

Invoicing: Invoices will be distributed in early August.

 

All-Star policies and procedures are managed by the All-Star Coordinator and Executive Director. Conflicts are handled on a case-by-case basis, with final decisions made at their discretion.
