T-Ball Division

Age

4 - 6 year olds (born between September 1, 2013 and April 30, 2016)

What is T-Ball?

T-Ball is the first introduction for children to learn to play baseball. It is designed for 4-6 year olds.
T-Ball offers players the opportunity to learn, develop and practice fundamental baseball skills at hitting, throwing, fielding and running. The games are held on a small diamond and use a special “soft” official ball.
Everyone bats every inning. No score or standings are kept.
In T-Ball Junior the ball is hit from a stationary tee. In T-Ball Senior, the ball may be soft under-hand pitched by coaches.
Coaches are allowed on the field and designated parents help by taking turns umpiring. All players are on the field and rotate positions.

There are two subdivisions within T-Ball:
• T-Ball Junior - players with birthdates between September 1, 2014 and April 30, 2016
• T-Ball Senior - players with birthdates between September 1, 2013 and August 31, 2014

There is at least one game per week, as the season progresses, additional practice times may be added.
There are 8-9 players on each team. Two friend requests are permitted, and we do our best to accommodate two friend requests per player.

Player Commitment

2 sessions per week
T-Ball games will be played on Saturdays and/ or Sundays. We aim to release the full schedule around March break. There are no sessions on the Easter and May long weekends.

Parent Commitment

T-ball is NOT a drop-off activity. An adult must stay at the park for the duration of each session. Parents are not allowed on the field during games or practices. Parents will be placed on a rotational schedule to help with bench and snack duties.

Equipment / Gear Required

Players need their own Helmet and Baseball Glove
Team equipment, shirts, and baseball caps are provided

T-Ball Field Locations

All games will be played at Memorial Park West T-Ball diamond (33rd Avenue and Wallace)

Playing Up

If your child displays strong baseball skills (able to catch, throw from one base to another, and hit a pitching machine pitch or equivalent), please indicate in the registration that you would like your child to be considered to play up in a higher division. If you select this option, your child will be required to attend the player assessments in early February. The final decision as to which division your child will play in will be decided by the assessors. Our goal is to place players in the division where they can have fun and develop their skills.
