Junior T-Ball (ages 3-4) and T-Ball (ages 4-5)

Junior T-Ball (ages 3-4) and T-Ball (ages 4-5) provide an introduction to organized team play. Children are instructed on the fundamentals: hitting, throwing, catching, running and fielding – with a lot coaching and parent support in a fun game environment. Players start the season by batting off a stationary tee, but may have the opportunity to be pitched to by the coach before the end of the season.


Junior T-Ball (replaces Blastball) will have two teams sharing the field for each 60 minute time slot.

  • The first 40 minutes will be stations and activities that support fundamental movement skills and team work.
  • Each session will end with an inning of T-Ball.
  • Parents are expected to assist on-field during every session!
  • A foam bat is used.

๏ปฟ

T-Ball games consist of 3 or 4 innings with each player getting a turn at bat. Game length will be no more than 90 minutes. During a game, there are SAFE’s and OUT’s on bases, but no scores are kept. Coaches are allowed on the field to assist the players with hitting and fielding. T-Ball is suitable for both aspiring baseball and softball players. If appropriate, 5-year-old players who demonstrate the required level of skill and maturity may be assessed for Junior Rookies. It is also possible for 6-year-old players to participate in T-Ball when appropriate.

All parents are expected to volunteer unless they have selected the opt-out fee at registration.


Friend Requests


We are pleased to consider friend requests on teams; however, this is limited to one friend request per player – and both registrants must input the same request (each other) and at the same level of programming. Priority is given to balancing our teams.

Our registration form provides a field for you to make your request.

All play happens within Beacon Hill, so rest assured that friends will have the opportunity to play and see each other with regularity!
