League Formats
NEW!!! 4U (3 and 4 years old) Players cannot turn 5 prior to May 1, 2021 - cost for Spring 2021 is $70
Our brand new 4u co-ed division is for players ages 3 and 4, and it's a very developmental league where children are first introduced to baseball/softball. This is a tee ball only league. While this is not an official bring-your-own-team league, efforts are made to honor as many parent requests as possible. All players play in the field and bat each inning. In March, teams will practice once a week on weekends, lasting no more than one hour. In April teams will substitute their weekend practice with a game, and pick up a weekday practice if they choose.
6U (5 and 6 years old) Players cannot turn 7 prior to May 1, 2021 - cost for Spring 2021 is $180
Our 6u division is for players ages 5 and 6, and it's a developmental league where many kids are first introduced to baseball. This is a coach pitch league with tees being used for players that need one. While this is not a bring-your-own-team league, efforts are made to honor as many parent requests as possible. All players play in the field each inning.
8U (7 and 8 years old) - Players cannon turn 9 prior to May 1, 2021 - cost for Spring 2021 is $210

10U (9 and 10 years old) - Players cannon turn 11 prior to May 1, 2021 - cost for Spring 2021 is $240
This is a kid pitch league with players further developing their skills while playing a game that is much closer to "real" baseball.
