This year, we will have 2 sessions for the Pre-K age division. Practices for session 1 will start on April 14, 2025. Games generally begin on May 5, 2025. Session 1 will end no later than June 14, 2025. Practices for session 2 will start June 16, 2025. Games will begin on June 30, 2025 and will end by August 9, 2025. There are 1-2 practices per week leading up the first game. Games are 2-3 innings and have a time limit of 45 minutes. All players will hit from a tee. Every player will get a chance to bat during each inning and line ups should be rotated to provide every player an opportunity to hit last to hit the "home run".
For the Pre-K age division, you may register for either Spring or Summer session or you are also able to register for both if your player would like to play both seasons. Please be aware, these are 2 different sessions and if you play both sessions, you will be on a different team for each session.
Each player will need to provide their own glove, helmet, and bat at each practice and game. Please be sure to print your child’s name on the inside of the baseball cap along with any other personal equipment. Cleats, baseball pants, and baseball socks are not necessary in these leagues, but can absolutely be worn if your player would like.
Equipment and clothing can be expensive. Please feel free to buy and sell used clothing and equipment from sites like this: Perrysburg Baseball and Softball Used Equipment.
The Pre-K and Kindergarten age divisions are selected by a random draw. We do also consider request at this age group and there is a space to put those requests within the registration form. We do divide up the Pre-K age division by age so your player will be on a team with those of a similar age.
Each team needs one head coach and one assistant coach. We also allow parent helpers, although either the head or assistant coach must be present at all team events. The Pre-K age division has teams of about 7-10 players, although teams may be larger depending on how many volunteers we get. At this level, you don't need to be a baseball expert, just be willing to put in the time and energy to help the kids learn and have fun. Coaching at this level is a very rewarding experience, and kids love having parents or family members as a coach.
A passion for the game

Availability during the season
All coach volunteers need to complete concussion and Lindsay's Law training at the time of registration and will have the opportunity to go to a workshop to get coaching tips and training on how to use SportsConnect to manage their team.
