*3 EASY STEPS TO SIGNING UP ONLINE*
#1 - CRITICAL: FIRST, YOU MUST DETERMINE YOUR CHILD'S "BASEBALL AGE"(THIS IS A STANDARD PRACTICE FOR YOUTH BASEBALL LEAGUES). To do so, we are using the dateof May 1, 2019 (yes,2019).
Example:
If your child is currently 7, and his birthday is February 15, his "baseball age" is 8 -because he will turn 8 BEFORE May 1, 2019.
If your child is currently 7, and his birthday is June 15, his "baseball age" is 7 -because he will turn 8 AFTER May 1, 2019.
#2: DETERMINE WHICH DIVISION YOUR CHILD ELIGIBLE FOR - Tball, Bantam, Minors or Majors
Using May 1, 2019 as the official date to determine your child's "baseball age" (if nec., see above for explanaiton and examples):
NEW: Majors: 10, 11 & 12
Minors: Ages 8 & 9
Bantam: Ages 6 & 7
Tball: Ages 4* & 5
*Tball: Child must turn 4 years old by Sept. 14, 2018.This is for insurance reasons and cannot be changed.
**There will be no "play ups" (playing in an age division older than your child's "baseball age"). This is due to using the official "baseball age" date of May 1, 2019.
2018 FALL BALL SCHEDULE
TBALL: 8:30-10:00 a.m. @ Copper Beech MS
BANTAM: 10:15-11:45 a.m. @ Copper Beech MS

*COACHES ARE DEFINITELY NEEDED - WE ARE STARTING FROM 0! No coaches, no fall league. Unfortunately, it's that simple.Our league is run by volunteers, so that our children may participate in various athletic activities. As was the case this past spring, ratios are typically 4:1 or 5:1, sometimes 3:1. 1x/week, 90 mins. You got this!
*If interested, when registering online, simply check the box when asks if interested in coaching. We even provide both training & support for coaches.You got this!
GIRLS, SOFTBALL:SOAC's girls' softball program is now welcoming girls of ALL ages! For more info, please contact Director Mary Callaghan:tmcallaghan96@gmail.com.
