FARM / A
This level provides each player with an enjoyable baseball learning experience. The basics of the game such as fielding, throwing, base running, and hitting are emphasized. This division is 100% coach pitch and has an instructional focus. Teams are formed by the Player Agent, taking into account skill levels, geography, and parental requests (we will only allow one request per child). Official Little League Rules of Play are substantially modified to facilitate the games. No scores or standings are kept for this instructional division. At the end of the season, children will celebrate their season with “Farm Fest” at Ginty Field where they will play their final game and have a celebration.
