LEAGUE DESCRIPTIONS: Drafted Leagues (Farm, Minors, M60, M70)
Spring ball is for GIRLS AND BOYS ages 3-12. No experience is required; coaches will teach you the game at any level.
Gear Requirements for DRAFTED leagues: baseball glove and baseball pants; cleats are helpful, but not required. Coaches will have batting helmets and bats, however if you have your own, please bring them.
