Riders Fall Baseball Program

The Gillette Roughriders program offers an extensive Fall Baseball program each year after the summer season comes to an end. This is primarily for our players that do not play other sports. The program starts usually at the end of August and extends through the middle of October. Practices are 2-3 nights a week, usually on Tuesday and Thursday. Every Thursday night during the fall, the team has a live inter-squad scrimmage.
This phase of our season focuses a lot on developing fundamental skills, becoming familiar with our system, and improving each individual player in the areas that they need to focus on the most. It's a great way for players of all calibers to continue developing as individuals.
The fall season includes a 8-12 game schedule against quality opponents such as Cheyenne, Rapid City, and various teams from Colorado. Cost to play in the Fall Ball Program is $75.00.
