Just a quick reminder if you have not yet registered your child for baseball/softball.
Bangkok Baseball Softball Association (BBSA) has organized baseball/softball play for the past 59 years in Bangkok. There are leagues for boys and girls ages 4 yrs – 18 yrs. Please note registration is open from now until November 1st. Current fees per player are THB 3,600. There is a late fee for registrations after November 1st.
You can make your payment at the Community Activity Office (CAO) or pay by Thai bank wire transfer. Cash, credit cards and Thai baht checks are accepted for payment at the CAO office. The CAO Office is open Monday – Friday, 7:00AM to 11:00AM and 12:00PM to 3:00PM.
Player assessment will be held on between Monday, Nov 4th to Thursday, Nov 7th. A specific schedule will be sent to parents and players soon. All players are strongly encouraged to attend their assessment sessions to allow the coaches to create fair and balanced teams.
Opening Day for baseball/softball is on Saturday, Nov 16th. Games will generally played on Saturdays with an occassional Friday evening game. Games will continue every weekend until the league championships the weekend of February 14/15th. There will be no games during the winter break at ISB but we will continue play on Saturday, January 11th 2020. The game schedule will be published approximately one week before the season begins.
Practices will begin the week of Nov 14th. All teams will practice once per week during the season as a weekly practice is important to skills development and to learn the fundamentals of teamwork, etc. There are also optional weekly practices at NIST and Bangkok Patana for downtown families. There will a fee charged for these practices as BBSA is charged by these schools for field usage.
On the registration form you will also have an opportunity to volunteer to be a coach, assistant coach or team parent. Please consider helpng out with your child’s team in some way. The kids really love having their parents helping out with their team and you will have a great time. No previous baseball experience is necessary.
