About This Activity
Description
This beginner league for boys and girls focuses on learning the basic fundamentals of baseball. Qualified Park District staff will coach players on the proper techniques of throwing, fielding, running bases and batting through this 6-week program.
After about 2 weeks of hitting off a tee, coaches will try 3 pitches to the players and if the ball isn't hit after three pitches, coaches will put a tee in front. If players are not ready for pitching, coaches will keep the tee in front of the player.
Players should bring their own glove and water bottle. Please label any personal equipment with name and phone number.
The registration deadline is April 8. After registration deadline, late fees will apply. Registration fee is $62 due by April 8 after April 8, fee will go up to $82.
There will be no practices or games July 1-4 week.
Please request an appropriate t-shirt size for your child. We will not have extra shirts to exchange. T-shirts are sponsored by Scheels.
All baseball/softball levels will be based on grade completed as of 2023/2024 school year.
Team schedules will be email and posted online at wfparks.org by May 31. Team rosters will be set up according to school attending, please specify the school your child attends or will be attending.
Individual and team photos will be taken by a professional photographer, with the option to order photo packages. Dates and times will be emailed and posted at wfparks.org in June.
During the first week for Tball and Rookies, participants will work on skill development.
Equipment:
Players should bring their own baseball glove with them to practice every day. Bats and helmets will be provided. The West Fargo Park District highly recommends players supply their own helmet for hygienic reasons. Helmets can be purchased at local sporting good stores. Helmets will be provided for those who do not purchase one on their own. All participants should bring a water bottle with them each day. Please label your Childs equipment with name and phone number.
“Buddy” Policy:
Each Participant may request one friend as a “buddy”. The buddy requested must also request you in order for the buddy request to be considered a match. All other requests (e.g. multiple buddies, buddy chains) will not be granted. Requests to play on the same team will not be guaranteed. Siblings are always buddied unless a specific request not to do so is made. When siblings are placed together, no other buddy request is granted. To learn more about the “Buddy” Policy, please visit wfparks.org under baseball.
