Blastball Program
Our Blastball program introduces children aged 3-4 to baseball fundamentals through fun, non-competitive activities. This co-ed program focuses on basic skills like throwing, catching, and hitting while emphasizing teamwork and sportsmanship. Participants develop motor skills and social interaction in a supportive environment designed for early childhood development.
T-Ball Division
Designed for ages 5-6, our T-Ball Division teaches foundational baseball skills using stationary tee balls. Coaches focus on proper batting technique, fielding basics, and game rules through structured practices and modified games. This program builds confidence while introducing children to organized team sports in a low-pressure setting that prioritizes learning over competition.
Majors Division
Our competitive Majors Division for ages 9-12 features skill-based team assignments and regular season games. Players develop advanced techniques through structured practices and competitive play, with emphasis on strategy, sportsmanship, and game execution. This division prepares athletes for higher-level baseball while maintaining focus on personal growth and team collaboration.
Volunteer Opportunities
We offer diverse volunteer roles including coaching, event coordination, and administrative support. Our Volunteer Coordinator position manages team assignments and event logistics, while Concession Managers oversee game-day operations. Adult Umpires ensure fair play, and event helpers support special programs like our annual Bat-A-Thon, creating opportunities for community engagement at all levels.
Skill Assessments
Our comprehensive skill assessments determine appropriate team placements for Majors Division players. Evaluations measure batting, fielding, and base running abilities to create balanced teams through objective criteria. This process ensures competitive fairness while identifying individual strengths and development areas for personalized coaching strategies.
