Boys Minors Information

     This program is a training program and is designed to teach basic baseball skills, at the same time enjoying the game.

A pitching machine is used for the following reasons:

1.  It gives all the players the maximum opportunity to bat, field, throw, and run the bases, not just two or three on a team.

2.  Games move along much faster thereby allowing for more innings played and therefore more opportunities for each player.

3.  It saves the arms of pitchers until they are older.  Coaches have often been known to teach this age player to throw curve balls, etc., which can prove to be harmful to them later on.

4.  Most all players quickly learn to hit the machine pitched ball and develop confidence that they will not be hit.  This success encourages success in other areas as well.

Post season play for this age group may consist of an interleague tournament. We reserve the right to change the nature of post season play or to eliminate it all together if deemed necessary.
