Post-Season Progression
Both leagues have tournament trails extending to the Babe Ruth World Series for their respective age groups. Norchester Babe Ruth forms two teams for post season tournament competition:
Juniors 13-15
Seniors 16-19
All-Star team that consists of 15-18 players in the age group of 13-15 years old who participate on the team along side their regular season team. This team plays a short schedule designed to provide necessary experience for post-season play. Final roster is limited to 15 players entering the District tournament.
The Senior Babe Ruth A squad (18 man roster) is selected in the beginning of the season. Changes can be made to the roster prior to Districts and States.
