2020 Spring 4-12 Year Old Baseball/Softball Information

Parents, Players and Coaches,

        We are excited about our 2020 4-12 Year Old Spring Baseball/Softball Season! We have 54 teams in the 4-12 year old division.  With that, comes some challenges on scheduling. We have worked all of that out but want to remind everyone that schedules can’t always be perfect, we try our best to make it work.

Practices: are scheduled and have already begun. The Concession Stand will be open during practices. We have scheduled practices for all teams, but coaches can switch with each other. Parents please verify with your coach about practice times. Coaches, please talk your parents about your practice times. Once games start, we will still have some limited practice slots that coaches can call the office and see what we have available. Please pickup after your practice.

Games: Opening games and pictures will be on Saturday March 28, 2020. We are working on a plan about opening day. Once it is complete, we will send it out, or you will hear from your coach. Game schedules will be completed in the next 2 weeks and will be posted online.  Regular season games will be on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday and each team will play 2 games per week. 

Uniforms: Uniforms will be given out by coaches the week before opening games. If you did not order the complete uniform at uniform fitting, please speak with your coach about pant and sock/belt color or it can also be found by clicking here. If you missed uniform fitting, you must go by Play It Again Sports and get fitted.

 Conduct: We want to remind everyone of our Code of Ethics and the obligation to conduct yourself with good sportsmanship while at complexes. We want to remind everyone that only rostered coaches will be allowed on the field.  

End of Season Tournament Bracket: This single elimination bracket for each age group will be held May 2nd or May 9th. Pool Play games will be used for seeding into the End of Season Tournament single elimination bracket. There will be a $5 entry fee. Players, coaches and children 6 and under will be free. Rings will be awarded for 1st and 2nd place for each age group, this is the only day of the season we will have a gate fee.

T-ball will have their own End Of Season event on April 25th. You will receive more information about this event from your coach. 

Again, we thank you for everything and helping us with another great season of baseball and softball!!!! If you have any questions or concerns, please respond to this email or feel free to call the office at 601-402-7299. See you on the fields!!!
