  Purpose:

  Our focus is to introduce baseball to kids in a fun way.  There will be no evaluation by ability at this age level.  Please do not be discouraged if your child has never played before.  All kids will be able to fully participate in every practice and game.

  League Description:

  Teams will be created by school when possible.  There is no guarantee that players will all be from the same school but efforts will be made to divide them in this fashion.

  A typical week will include 1 practice (M-Th) and 1 game (Sun).  While each coach has discretion, most practices will be 60-75 minutes and games will 1 hour. 

  League Guidelines:

  • Coaches will pitch to batters with a batting tee as an alternative.
  • The batter will receive approximately ten pitches from the coach. If contact is not made in those ten pitches, a batting tee will be used.
  • All players will bat each inning.
  • After three outs by the defense, the bases will be cleared and the batting team will continue.
  • Players will rotate from position to position during the course of the game.
  • Games will be five innings or as many innings that can be played in the allotted time.

  Schedule:

  Each team will practice one night during the week with one game on Sunday. Games will take place late afternoon or early evening each Sunday. There will be no games scheduled during the Memorial Day and 4^th of July weekends.
