There are organised leagues for the 10-13 (Bronco) and 14-16 (Pony) age ranges, and some development Rookie Ball leagues for younger children. Additionally, the BBF supports the Play Ball programme run by BaseballSoftballUK, which introduce children aged 8-12 to bat and ball games, usually through their schools or a local league scheme.
The BBF youth leagues run from May to August in both the northern and southern parts of England.
