This covers the age groups Under Seven through Under 10 with the exception of Under 10A.

Players in this group either play Teeball (Under 7 & 8) or Machine Ball (Under 9 & 10). Machine Ball means the ball is pitched by a machine. In RHBL that machine is, more often than not, the Zooka; an automatic pitching machine that can can deliver the balls "in the batting zone" at a set Safe speed.

Liveball

This covers the age groups Under Eleven through Under 19 with the inclusion of Under 10A.

No more batting tees or pitching machines; the ball is thrown by the pitcher.

Presentation Day and Trophies

Presentation Day is usually scheduled for a Sunday afternoon as soon as possible after the completion of the season.

All Junior players receive a Participation Award at Presentation Day.

It is also Falcons policy to make several special awards to players in each team. These are decided by the coach and manager toward the end of the season.

Players who have played with the Falcons for 5 or 10 consecutive years receive an award.
