Practice and Game times for all divisions to be determined.

Mini-Tad

The mini-tad level is the introduction to baseball. Players hit off a batting tee and we use soft, training baseballs. Every player is required to purchase their own glove, batters helmet and athletic supporter.  Equipment can be purchased at Chevy’s Source for Sports, Mission Sports, Sports Excellence, Walmart, Canadian Tire, Sport Chek… Spikes are not required but can be helpful.  A ball uniform will be provided. If you purchase your child a NEW glove, it is a great idea to try and get it broken in before the season starts. This will make it much easier for your child to learn to catch.

Teams are small to ensure maximum participation, and coaches spend lots of time teaching basic catching and throwing skills. Boys and girls who are five or six years old on Dec. 31 of the previous calendar year play in our minitad division.  There will be one practice and one game on weekday evenings per week. Practice days will not change and will be scheduled for Mondays or Tuesdays, we try to make it work for the families. Games will be on Wednesdays or Thursdays.  The season goes from mid April (weather providing) until the end of June. This division primarily plays at the Lombardy baseball facility near Bankhead school in central Kelowna.  There will be no schedule published until the second week of April 2010.  Register now to assure there is a spot on a team for your player. If you have any questions, please email Grant .
