T-Ball:
A program recommended for 4, 5, and 6 year
olds to teach the fundamentals of hitting
and fielding. All batters will hit the ball
from a batting tee which is adjusted to a
height that allows the batter to swing
level. All rostered players present for the
game bat in order, whether playing
defensively or not. Each player plays a
minimum of two innings defensively An adult
coach is stationed beyond the infielders in
order to provide instruction to all
defensive players. The primary goal is to
begin to instruct young players in the
fundamentals of baseball in a supportive
team environment.

an excellent way to continue teaching the
fundamentals of the game in a coach pitched
enviorment while building player
confidence. |

| Minor:
Recommended for 9 and 10 year olds. Among
teammates of their own age and experience
level, players continue building and
refining their fundamental skills while they
begin to understand game strategy. It is at
the minor league level that players first
experience post-season tournament
competition, with district, state, and
regional levels of play. |

| Major 60: The
most experienced level of Cal Ripken
Baseball, recommended for 11 and 12 year old
players. Cal Ripken Baseball is played under
the Official Baseball Rules, but implements
some special rules as necessary for the
development and welfare of this young age
group. The game is played on a 60-foot
diamond with a pitching distance of 46 feet.
In order to encourage the league to train
more pitchers, there are rules that set the
maximum number of innings a pitcher may
pitch in a calendar week. Regulation games
consist of six innings or four innings if a
game is called. Special base running rules
are also in effect. |

| Major 70: This
new division, which has a 50' pitching
distance and 70' base paths, is offered as
an additional option to your current league
set-up, and has a tournament trail from
district competition through the World
Series, just as the current division enjoys. |
