Profile
The DFW-ABA is organized in groups categorized by age. League age groups are the 18+, 25+, 35+, 40+, 50+, 55+ and 60+. Each age group is divided into two or more leagues when possible. These divisions are classified by experience level and competition. The advanced level (AAA) is typically for players that have college level or professional level experience. The intermediate level (AA) is generally for players with varsity high school level or some high school experience. Lastly, the DFW-ABA’s recreational (A) level is the broadest level. The levels of play are intended to remove the intimidation factor for the players while targeting those with little or no experience and whose skills are a bit rusty. Whatever the situation, the DFW-ABA is committed to providing a level of baseball that is competitive and comfortable for players of varying skills.
The DFW-ABA is a community-oriented organization that seeks to promote baseball at the grass roots level. As part of the DFW-ABA philosophy, no alcohol, drugs, or fighting are permitted at league games by participants or spectators. Many of the fields our league uses are local high school, college, or park fields that have similar mandates. All players and managers must agree to contracts attesting to their understanding of these rules and that they will abide by them. Additionally, the league requires each participant to sign a waiver indemnifying the league against liability.
