T-Ball Coach/Pitch for grades 1-2
Information and Register: Montclair Baseball-Softball Club website
T-Ball is designed for boys and girls in Pre-K & K (4 years old if comfortable playing sports). Players learn the fundamentals of the game over an 8-week period from professional coaches who are assisted by area college and high school players.
Coach Pitch is designed for kids in grades 1-2. After reviewing some of the fundamental skills during the first two weeks, the players move quickly to scrimmages and games. Kids will be assigned to teams and will have a schedule for practices and games. League standings are not kept but this program is much more game oriented than T-Ball. Parents usually serve as coaches but there are always professional coaches, college and high school players on the field to help with the practices and games. This division will also have a chance to play at Yogi Berra Stadium near the end of the season.
Girls are welcome to play in this program but softball will not be taught. MBSC has a coach pitch Softball division that is primarily for girls.
