Instructional League (Grades PreK, K & 1)

The instructional league is intended to familiarize girls with the fundamental aspects of batting, running and fielding as well as game mechanics such as batting in order, roles of various positions, changing innings and making defensive plays on base runners. Coaches pitch until the player gets a hit or after five pitches, the player hits off a tee. Each player bats in a half inning. Base runners advance all the way to home with the last batter. Players can be tagged out while running bases but the inning goes on until each player in the lineup bats. Scores are not kept.

Games go 3 - 4 innings or 90 minutes. Teams play twice each week, one Saturday and one weeknight evening game.
