Teams are formed and practices are underway (weather permitting, of course!), as we move toward the beginning of the 2018 baseball and softball season ... with Opening Day (parade and first games) set for Saturday, May 5.
ATTENTION --- Schedules for all youth league baseball teams (8-U and older) and softball teams (10-U and older) are now available on our website.

Schedules for all Training League teams (TEE, PAL, and GAL Ball) will be posted by Tuesday.
All ABC teams are invited to participate in the Opening Day Parade beginning at Wyland Elementary School on Brown Rd at 10:30 am. Please arrive prior to 10:30 am so vehicles may be properly lined up and you can "decorate your float" (could be a couple of trucks or cars or a flatbed or whatever is motorized on wheels!) and get all your players and coaches on board and away you go! It's all about the fun of being IN a parade...
ATTENTION --- --- Final ID Card date -- Saturday, April 28 -- 10 am to 2 pm
In-person sign up sessions for
ABC's 2018 recreational baseball, softball, and training league programs have

ATTENTION JOB SEEKERS! JOIN THE ABC TEAM!
IMPORTANT CONCESSION CHANGE IN SPRING 2018:
Effective in April, ABC Ball Park is no longer requiring teams to provide workers for our concession stand -- just come and play ball, no other work duties required!
We've put in place many park and program improvements in the past few years (new dugouts and many other field improvements, new field house heating, etc. etc.) and now the elimination of the concession stand work requirement is another policy change put into effect based on your feedback.
Not to worry --- your concession favorites like chicken strips, crab rangoon, strawberry smoothies, and (dare we say it) cheese fries will still be on the menu. We'll be hiring soon to staff our concession to serve all your ball park menu favorites. For info on concession jobs at ABC, read more...
ABC Ball Park is proud to support STL Youth Sports Outreach in its mission to provide sports equipment for children coming from families in need.
