Shall and will are conditional helping verbs and are used with a present tense main verb (I shall go; you will play baseball this year; etc.)

Different helping verbs are used for different purposes in sentences. One of their main functions is to situate the action of a sentence in a particular aspect of time. The two main aspects that helping verbs play a role in are the progressive aspect and the perfect aspect.
I hope this helps
