About this division
Blastball is for kids who are baseball age 3 - 4 (pre-kindergarten) who were born between September 1, 2018 – August 31, 2020.
​
Blastball provides an introduction to baseball and team sports. Baseball skills are introduced, kids will be introduced to throwing, catching, hitting off a tee, and running. The primary focus is on fun, being part of a team, physical activity, and building confidence.
​
There are 6-8 players per team. Players are permitted to request one to three friends. The Division Coordinator will do their best to accommodate the request but are not guaranteed. Friend requests are made at the time of registration.
​
Player Commitment
One game per week (1 hour total time) on Saturday mornings. Game start times will vary. Games typically last 30-45 minutes and are followed by a parent-provided snack.
Parent Commitment
Each team relies on parent volunteer coaches and team managers. T-Ball is NOT a drop-off activity. Snack and bench duties will be assigned per game.
Practice / Game Structure
The first 20 minutes is comprised of team “drills” focused on fun, simple and active simple throwing, running and hitting using a foamy bat and ball.
​
The game involves 1 tee and 1 base set-up. Each player gets an opportunity to hit the ball each inning and run to the base. The fielding team sets up a line and 1 kid per batter is designated to retrieve the ball and throw to a parent coach.
​
No score or standings are kept.
Required Equipment
We recommend players bring their own gloves. Players should wear runners and comfortable clothing that allows freedom of movement. Players will be given hats and a team shirt to keep.
