Practices will be up to the coach as to when and where for T-ball and Coach Pitch. Practices for Machine Pitch will be organized to allow the use of the pitching machines.

We offer T-ball for Pre-K and Kindergarten. In order to register for Pre-K, your child needs to turn 4 before the first game. Coach Pitch is offered for 1st graders. Machine Pitch is offered for 2nd graders. Grade is determined by what grade they are currently in and will be finishing this spring.

Equipment

Hats will be provided. Each player is responsible for their own mitt.
