***When you register your child, it will display what divisions he or she should be in based on their birth date.***

T-BALL

Co-ed Boys / Girls

 Registration for T-Ball will remain open until all teams are filled.  No late registration fees apply.   

T-ball is restricted to boys and girls born between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2018. The development of the players drives this decision as we prepare them for the next step of baseball or softball. 

P.S. We typically always have room for more T-Ballers, so don’t hesitate to register.  You should always check with us regarding openings should you register later in the season.  So come on out and join us!
