9U
9U is designed to develop the fundamentals (hitting, running, catching and throwing) at a higher level. This includes playing on its own field, hitting from a pitching machine, and making plays to get 3 outs. These games are officiated by an umpire.
Boys and Girls ages 8-9 years of age are eligible to play. The season typically begins after the long weekend in May and ends with playoffs by mid-August. There is a year-end banquet for all players and parents where the regular season and playoff champs will receive trophies.
