What do I need to know about Tee Ball? 

This is a fun drill and repetition focused program to help introduce your child to the game of baseball.  Teams will play 6 vs.6 and take turns rotating to outfield stations for Rally Caps drills.

Schedule -- The Spring regular season starts in late March and runs through the last weekend of May. The Fall season typically starts in mid to late August and generally runs through the end of October. Weather permitting, practices start a couple of weeks prior to the first games. Tee Ball teams play one game per week on Saturdays and have one practice each week. Games are subject to a 45 minute time limit

Equipment -- At a minimum, your child will need a baseball glove and helmet.  Personal bats and cleats are not required but recommended.
