Registration for the summer baseball season will close on March 1. Currently, with the exception of the second session of Little Sluggers, registrations are subject to a $25 late fee and kids are placed on a waiting list. We hope to be able to place all kids that sign up onto a team. On March 1, registration will close and there will be no waiting list established or registrations accepted as of that date.

Summer Program Descriptions
The Little Sluggers Coach Pitch league is for kids in pre-K or Kindergarten. Kids receive five pitches and if they do not hit it then it is placed on a tee. We now offer two sessions of Little Sluggers. The first session begins in April and ends in early June. The second session begins in early June and ends in early July. You do not need to play in the first session to sign up for the second session. Cost for either session is $35
The Pee Wee Minor League is for kids in Kindergarten, 1st grade or 2nd grade. For Kindergartners, this league is appropriate for kids with advanced skills. Kids hit off a pitching machine and more formal baseball rules (including outs) are introduced. There are no standings or league tournament and Minors players are not eligible to try out for a tournament team. The season begins in April and ends in early June. Cost is $45.
The Pee Wee Majors League is for 1st and 2nd graders. There is an opening weekend of play in May and a season-ending league tournament. Kids hit off a pitching machine and more formal baseball rules (including outs) are introduced. This league is more competitive than Minors. Players interested in trying out for a tournament team MUST sign up for Pee Wee Majors. The season begins in April and ends in mid-July. Cost is $65.
