Divisions

Tee Ball (ages 4-5)

Tee Ball is the entry level division for players, ages 4-5. The experience is grounded in fun, fitness, and fundamentals while also being a key to growing a child’s love for the game. Every player bats off of a tee and every player plays in the field each inning.

Tee Ball players use bats and softer balls (baseballs and softballs) designated specifically for use in this division. The roster size for a Tee Ball team averages 8-12 players, with a season featuring 1-2 45min to an 1 hour practices per week with games played on weekdays and weekends.

Coach Pitch (ages 5-7)

Coach Pitch is one division up from Tee Ball for players, ages 5-6. The experience is grounded in fun, fitness, and fundamentals while also being a key to growing a child’s love for the game. The primary difference from tee-ball is that each player bats off of pitches thrown from their coach.
