Instructional League
(Kindergarten and 1st Grade)
The Instructional League focuses on learning rather than competition. Coaches pitch with a "flex" baseball. No scores are kept. The goal is to have fun and learn about baseball. Practices start late April / early May. Games start around Memorial Day and go through approximately the second week in July. Games are held during the week and on Saturdays.
