HALFMOON BASEBALL LEAGUE


2025 SPRING REC SEASON REGISTRATION

Halfmoon Spring Rec Program

The Spring Recreation Season is the largest program in the Halfmoon Baseball League.  The recreational divisions cover ages from 4 to 15U that focuses on player development and introduces new skills and rules as the player progresses through the age divisions.

The season starts in late April and runs through the middle of June.  Every season starts with an Opening Weekend including team pictures, team introductions, food trucks/full concession stand, and fireworks at night.  During the opening weekend, we host the Rec Rumble in which all teams compete in an opening weekend tournament.  The baseball completes with Championship week in mid-June where the older divisions compete to see who will be the Halfmoon Rec Champions.  We conclude the season with our closing ceremonies in which all players are introduced and receive an award.  

Spring 2025 Registration is Now Open!  See you in the Spring!
