Athletics/Baseball

Youth baseball begins with registration and practice in April and concludes in July. The leagues are open to boys and girls ages 5 – 15 and age eligibility for the 2008 season is determined by the participant’s age as of April 30 of the current year.

T-Ball is baseball played without a pitcher. The ball is placed on a “tee” that sits on home plate and the batter hits a stationary ball from the “tee.” All participants will play the field and bat in each game. The instructional T-ball League (age 5) plays a ten-game season schedule. The T-Ball League (ages 6 – 8) season includes a nine-game schedule and a single elimination post-season tournament.

Minor, Major and Senior Major League Baseball uses a pitcher. The season includes a nine-game schedule and a single elimination post-season tournament. All participants will play the field and bat in each game.

League locations and playing schedules are subject to change as warranted by the number of registrants.
