Our Program Vision: Empowering Lives through Leadership, Baseball, and Community

At the National Amateur Fall Baseball Federation (NAFBF), we are deeply committed to
elevating amateur baseball across North America. We recognize the incredible potential to
enhance the experience for young athletes, and we’re excited to introduce transformative,
inclusive elements that enrich the game. Our mission is to create a baseball program that offers
more than just athletic development—it’s an experience that nurtures both skill and character,
empowering individuals from all backgrounds to thrive. Our vision is rooted in three core values
that guide everything we do: Leadership, Character, and Excellence.

Leadership and Character Matter

Baseball offers a unique platform to shape young athletes, not just in their athletic abilities, but in
their character. The sport teaches essential life lessons—sportsmanship, teamwork, confidence,
humility, and resilience. These qualities are just as vital, if not more so, than game skills
themselves. Too often, traditional programs focus primarily on technique, overlooking the
importance of personal growth. At NAFBF, we prioritize nurturing leadership and character,
recognizing that these values leave a lasting impact both on and off the field.
We’re committed to ensuring that every young athlete, regardless of their background, has the
opportunity to develop leadership skills that transcend the game. Our program is designed to
uplift all participants, including those from underserved or underrepresented communities, and
provide them with the tools they need to become leaders in their teams, schools, and
communities.

Excellence Matters

We wholeheartedly agree with Major League player and manager Buck Rodgers, who said:
“There are countless ways of attaining greatness, but any road to reaching one’s maximum
potential must be built on a bedrock of respect for the individual, a commitment to excellence,
and a rejection of mediocrity.” This belief is the cornerstone of everything we do.
At NAFBF, excellence is the standard. We provide an environment where athletes not only excel
on the field but also thrive as individuals. From the quality of gameplay to the cutting-edge
technology we use, we aim to inspire every player to reach their highest potential. Our
commitment to excellence extends to creating a culture where athletes understand that
achievement, hard work, and personal growth are interconnected, and where every individual is
supported in their pursuit of greatness—no matter their starting point.

A New Era in Amateur Baseball

At NAFBF, we are proud to offer a baseball program that goes beyond traditional approaches.
Our focus is on developing both skilled athletes and exceptional individuals. We’re shaping
tomorrow’s leaders, community role models, true champions, and we couldn’t be more excited
about the progress we’re making. W are committed to continually growing and expanding
opportunities for every player, coach, and volunteer involved.
