Manzanita Ball Club opens Fall Ball sign-ups, keeps Phoenix kids playing since 1965
Fall Ball registration is available at Manzanita Ball Club, the youth baseball and softball hub rooted at 41st Avenue and Butler in Phoenix [1]. Founded in 1965, Manzanita typically serves roughly 400–500 boys and girls ages 4–16 across spring and fall seasons, with tee-ball, baseball, and softball on offer [1].The fields sit at 8501 N 41st Ave, anchoring the neighborhood’s community diamond where generations have learned the game [2][3]. Softball has been reorganized into a “Junior Girls” track and a “Competitive” division to group players by age and skill, giving families a clearer path as kids progress [1].Division fee schedules, season details, and contact information are posted, including the club email at manzanitaballclub@gmail.com for questions about sign-ups and sponsorships [1]. Operations are sustained by a mix of sponsors, registration fees, snack bar sales, and donations that cover insurance, uniforms, utilities, awards, umpires, fencing, and equipment—classic, community-powered baseball and softball on the west side [1].
