Spring season is the primary season for Murphey Candler Baseball.  Each spring Murphey Candler provides a great experience for approximately 1000 youth across 9 leagues, based on age.  Spring season begins in February and lasts through the end of May.  Our 7 baseball diamonds will host games each weeknight at 5:30 for the younger players and either 5:30 or 7:30 for the older players.  Games will also be played throughout the day on Saturdays.  In addition to the regular leagues, Murphey Candler also sponsors a team in the North Atlanta Challenger League, for children with special needs, as well as our own Frontier League program.

Please note that only players who live within our boundary lines may play during the Spring season.
