Rome-Floyd Parks and Recreation Baseball

Recreation | Rome, GA

Rome-Floyd Parks & Recreation has set the community baseball slate with spring (6U, 8U, 10U, 12U, 14U) and fall (7U, 9U, 11U, 13U) divisions, weeknight first pitches, and games hosted at Riverview, Hugh Selman, and Alto Park complexes [1]. The league’s Mandatory Play Rule keeps every kid in the game — all players are in the batting order and must play at least one defensive inning [1].

Operational details are locked in for the new cycle: the age-control date is June 30 in alignment with GRPA guidance, and USSSA BPF 1.15 bats are permitted under the posted equipment standards [1]. Schedules traditionally run Monday through Thursday in the early evening to keep the focus on school nights and family routines [1].

Policy updates for 2025 include a revised gate/spectator approach and card-only transactions for certain events, aimed at cleaner lines and a smoother park experience [1]. Registration returns in spring and fall with tiered early/regular/late windows, and coaches’ handbooks plus season rules are available online for quick reference [1]. The program sits within the city’s broader youth and adult sports offerings, reinforcing baseball’s place in Rome’s community calendar [2].
