| Description |
|
If baseball is America’s favorite past time, you’d better start your young one out early playing a little T-ball! Given the complex structure of this game (force outs) and the precise skill and technique needed for getting players out, we use a gradual approach to learning how to play. We begin the season teaching kickball and the format of “pitcher’s hand” to get outs. As players understand these concepts we move into more of the traditional teaching and coaching of T-ball. This method has proven successful in overall game understanding in both gym classes and T-ball leagues.
Each T-ball session, players will learn how to properly throw, catch, and field, run bases, and bat. Each player will receive a jersey and participation award. We will utilize Salem's gym for practices until we are able to play in Salem's backyard. So, come rain or shine as we have great venues for all types of weather!
Children in preschool (age 4 as of 9/1/19) through 1st grade are welcome to participate. Parents are also asked to participate alongside their child so that throwing and catching is an effective learning experience and accelerates the skill development of each child. We call this a "Parent & Me" sport.
