If you experience any difficulties in registering and require assistance, please call 866.981.2583 during normal business hours. After hearing the prompt press 2, for customer support.

Once that happens, those on the waitlist are not released until we have enough players to establish another team.
How to Register
To register for any sport within Fox-Rok Athletic Association, go to www.foxrokaa.com and click on “Register” that is located in the upper right hand corner of our home page. You will then need to click on “Create New Account or “Login” if you have already created an account. As a reminder, you must first have an account before you can register your child/children. The process is easy.
Once you have created an account, you then need to list your child/children before you can choose a program to play in. Select “Add Participant.” Enter the child’s name and complete all of the required fields. If you have more children to register, don’t select “Next.” Select “Add Another Participant.” Once you have added all of your children, you then select “Next.”
After you have entered all of your children only then will the system allow you to select the available program for that child or children. Make your selection. Continue to complete the necessary fields until you have completed your order. You will receive an email confirmation after you have successfully completed the process.
After the first time you register your child/children, the system will remember your information! You will only need to update a few lines as opposed to starting from scratch when registering for all other Fox-Rok sports.
Please note, if you want to coach or volunteer in any way, you must create an account online and state your interest. The program is set up to ask if you have a desire to volunteer and in what role.
To get on the mailing list, you must create an account online.
If you experience any difficulties in registering and require assistance, please call 866.981.2583 during normal business hours. After hearing the prompt press 2, for customer support. Tell them that you are a parent trying to register your child for baseball/softball with the Fox-Rok Athletic Association.
Concerning Registrations!
Registration cutoff dates are established mainly to ensure that uniforms and the necessary equipment needs can be identified and ordered in time to be received before the start of the playing season. This is the case for each sport offering at Fox-Rok A.A. Occasionally we have situations where we may require additional players to prevent a team or teams from folding and will solicit players by posting these openings on our website. That is the only time we will accept registrations after the established cutoff date. This website provides ample notice time for registration of all sports. On our website, at the top of each sport page, it states the month when registrations are held and the duration of the season. It is provided for your planning purposes.
Still have questions? Please contact Tim Eck our Director of Baseball at [email protected] or via telephone at 267.246.7927.

Additional Equipment Needed for 2025!

travel teams are required to purchase their own uniform pants from the Fox-Rok Athletic Association.

They can be purchased during baseball cleanup day at our Snack Shack (concession stand), when open. Uniform pants sell out fast. It is suggested that you purchase these early and avoid special ordering. For special arrangements, please contact

Posted 2/4/2025
We are having an additional cleanup day on Sunday, March 9, 2025 from 10:00 AM until 3:00 PM to prepare the fields for travel tryouts the following weekend. We are specifically encouraging local high school students looking for volunteer hours, older (11+) Fox-Rok travel baseball and softball players, and JV and Varsity CYO baseball and softball players to come assist in preparing the lower and upper fields and surrounding areas. Please make every effort to come, even if it is only for an hour or so. Please bring work gloves, rakes and brooms. To sign up and for more information, please email Michele at [email protected].
Emergency Entrance to the Upper Fields!
Posted April 21, 2022
The Fox Chase Elementary School has elected to lock their school yard (yes, it not a parking lot) when school is not in session. We are not sure how long the school wishes to continue this recent practice. Please be advised that there is an emergency entrance for ambulances and fire trucks to enter the upper fields. That entrance for emergency responders is through the driveway located between the recreation center building and the pool.
Age Cut-Off Date Change For Travel Baseball and Softball Players!
Posted on 2/1/2024
Yesterday, during our scheduled meeting with the NEAA (Northeast Athletic Association), formally known as the Northeast Peanut League, we have learned that they are changing their player placement age cut-off dates for this upcoming season, which do not align with our registration module dates. This is not alarming as it would only effect a few travel baseball and softball players who participate in the NEAA league. The Philadelphia Parks and Recreation league and our in-house programs age cut-off remains the same, May 1. Players will continue to register under our current guidelines and adjustments, if any, will be made as we get closer to season.
2025 Tryout Details are Listed on the Tryouts Page!
