Babe Ruth Season 2024

Practices are set to begin the week of February 5, 2024. Games will start the second week in March 2024. Each team will play 2 games a week up to the first week in June prior to all-star team selection for each age group (13, 14, 15 & 16). We will make every effort to schedule weekday games on days the High School does not play.  Sunday game start times vary from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm.  The season will have approximately 14-16 games.

There will not be any tryouts to attend. Teams are formed after the practices scheduled in February.

Divisions: 

Babe Ruth - Ages 13-14 
The players ages 13-14 years old are introduced to baseball on the full sized regulation baseball field.  Emphasis is placed on getting accustomed to the larger field as well as to new concepts the players must learn such as pitching from the stretch, understanding pitching balk rules, taking leads, stealing bases at any time, positioning and cut-offs.  Players will be placed on teams to create equally competitive teams.  

Babe Ruth League - Ages 15 & 16
The players 15 & 16 years old are experienced on the regulation baseball field and typically playing in high school. The start of their season will begin after the high school season is over. Emphasis is placed on further developing basic playing skills as well as refining individual skills and game strategy.  Pitching development continues and includes more awareness of type of pitch, location, ball & strike count, holding base runners and balk rules.  Hitting development includes more emphasis on bunting and the hit-and-run.  Fielding skills further emphasize the importance of positioning, proper coverage and back up as well as correct cut-offs. Players will be placed on teams to create equally competitive teams.
