Spring season is the primary season for Murphey Candler Baseball. Murphey Candler provides an excellent experience for approximately 1,000 youngsters across nine leagues, based on age, each spring. The spring season begins in February and lasts through the end of May. Our seven baseball diamonds will host weeknight games and practices that could start as early as 5:00 pm. The Rookie League (4u) will only have events on Sundays at the park. In addition to the traditional leagues, Murphey Candler also sponsors a team in the North Atlanta Challenger League for children with special needs and our Frontier League program.
