Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) For KALL Baseball Parents
Q: Why Do I have to complete an “Availability and Commitment” form if I don’t want my player participating in All-Stars?
A: KALL
wants to insure that every child has the opportunity to be on
the All-Star ballot if they so choose. In past years some
parents have come up after the voting and asked why their child
was not on the ballot. By completing the form Yes or No we can
insure EVERY player & parent is aware of the voting, and the
commitment it takes to be an All-Star. Q: How does the selection for All Star team work?
A: All
stars are decided by a vote of peer players and managers.
Generally, the first 9 players are voted and the remaining
players are selected by the All Star manager. Selection
procedures are outlined in the local rules. Q: How many different All-Star teams does KALL have? A: KALL has 3 baseball All-Star teams
