Welcome to the 2024 T-Ball Season!
We are looking forward to a fun and exciting season of recreational T-Ball in the Yampa Valley!
T-Ball is for players of all skill levels ages 4.5 - 6. The goal is to teach the game of baseball while developing individual skills and a love for the game.
Players will hit off a tee and/or get underhand toss from a coach. They will play on a 50' baseball diamond with a portable fence. T-Ball does not use player evaluations as a basis for the generation of teams and those teams are formed randomly.
