The Fall ball season runs from the weekend before Labor Day and typically ends the second or third weekend in October, totaling 7 weekends of play (noting we do not play Labor Day weekend.

Teams only play games on Sundays, with optional practices or training events during the week.

Sherwood offers game play for our JBO levels of play, Minors, Juniors and Seniors, which typically invites our incoming 2nd through 8th grade players to play during the fall season.

All games are played either in Sherwood at Sherwood Middle School, Sherwood High School or Hawks View Elementary School or in Tigard at Cook Park.

Sherwood High School and Cook Park both offer Turf fields, therefore no metal cleats are allowed on those fields.

Registration fees for the 2024 Fall ball season are as follows:

Individual player registrations:
Minors: $115
Juniors: $115
Seniors: $125

Team Registrations:
Minors: $900
Juniors: $1,000
Seniors: $1,100

The registration fee for individual players covers the cost of playing ball in Sherwood: fields, umpires, insurance, balls, etc.

Sherwood relies on uniforms from the Spring Season, therefore new players will be asked to purchase a hat and be given a uniform to borrow for the Fall Season.

Player registration is primarily for those players in Sherwood who are signing up to be assigned to a Sherwood team. The team registration is for already formed JBO teams who are looking to play against Sherwood teams.

For Fall ball, Sherwood does not hold a tryout, they rely on their Spring registration and season details.

Therefore, the initial rosters will be built on the following logic:

Incoming 4th, 6th, and 8th grade players will play fall ball at the same level they played in the spring.

Incoming 2nd, 3rd, 5th, and 7th graders will all play at the National level with the only caveat being those players who played at the Federal level in the spring.

Any other roster adjustments will be made with the support of the level coordinator and previous season coaches' support and feedback.

All new Sherwood players will play at the National level for their age division.

For Fall ball, ensuring that we have games that are balanced appropriately for teams is one of our primary concerns. This year, we are trialing a new model to help support balancing teams across the registration.

In concept, we are running the entire season like a tournament. With three rounds of pool play (three weekends) and then four weekends of bracket play that will balance teams across a winners and consolation bracket.

If we find during the first three weekends of Pool play that a team(s) doesn’t fit in the current pool, we will simply adjust before announcing the schedule for the following week.

Schedules for each week will be posted by Tuesday by 6pm.
