BASEBALL & SOFTBALL
T-BALL
(Baseball: Pre-K - Kindergarten Softball: League age 4-6)
The philosophy behind T-Ball is fun fun fun! These are the kids that will hopefully be the future of our higher divisions, and this is the time when we hope they become infected with the love of the game. The games are non-competitive. There is no score keeping and the emphasis is solely on creating a fun and rewarding atmosphere where the kids can be themselves and hopefully pick up a few skills throughout the season.
COACH PITCH
(Baseball: 1st & 2nd Grades Softball: League Age 6-8)
At the Coach Pitch level, the games are still non-competitive with no score keeping. The individual coaches will pitch the ball slowly to the kids, and they can get used to a ball coming at them. The emphasis is still on having fun with the game and continuing to develop more skills that they will use later.
MINORS
(Baseball: 3rd & 4th Grades Softball: League Age 8-10)
The Minors division is the first truly competitive division, where the players are evaluated by the managers before the season and then selected by draft onto each team. The practices typically become a bit more frequent and structured. Play is focused on continuing to develop the love of the game along with more of the core skills needed to be successful. This is also a preparatory division that will hopefully get the kids ready to play in the Majors division. There is an end of season playoff with an eventual champion. Players from this division that meet the age requirements are also eligible for All Stars play!
MAJORS
(Baseball: 5th & 6th grades Softball League Age 10-12)
The Majors is the highest level of little league play. Players are again evaluated by the managers and then selected for each team through a draft process. This is a competitive division which includes end of season playoffs and an eventual champion. The emphasis, as always, is on having fun, developing the love for the game and also on developing team play. The practice and game schedule will again be a bit more frequent and focused. Players from this division that meet the age requirements are also eligible for All Stars play!
