BASEBALL FOR ALL.

RECREATIONAL BASEBALL

Sherwood’s Recreational Baseball league is our developmental program for young players interested in learning baseball skills in non-competitive leagues. The program is divided up into 3 leagues: T-ball, Rookies and Futures.

  • T-ball is typically composed of players ages 4-6 (Pre-K to K), teams of 7-8 players play two days a week, focusing on fun and the fundamentals of the game. The majority of the season is hit from a tee, but towards the end of the season, coaches may opt for coach pitch.

    Schedules will be released after registration is closed and we know how many players are registered.

    Typically, we play two days a week, and times are either 5pm-6pm or 6:15pm-7:15pm and alternate so that all teams get to play each other. The season typically starts in the beginning of April and ends just after Memorial Day.

  • Rookies is for ages 7-8 (1st to 2nd), and uses a machine to pitch from the mound. Teams are formed with 11-12 players and play 2-3 days a week. This level is still very instructional and players who have no experience will fit perfectly at this level.

    Players should expect to practice or play two days a week, all locally in Sherwood. Schedules are dependent on the number of registered players and coach availability, so we are unable to publish a schedule until we have closed registration and formed teams. The season typically starts in the beginning of April and ends just after Memorial Day.

  • Futures is our last recreational level of play and is for ages 8-9 (2nd). Futures is the first level at which players get the opportunity to pitch themselves from the mound. Coaches support the pitchers, stepping in after four balls have been thrown. The game is played with most of the same rules as our Minor National division, prepping players for the next level of play. Coaches take turns umpiring.

    Players should expect to play two days a week, either practice or games once the season starts. Schedules are dependent on the number of players registered and coach availability, so we are unable to publish a schedule until we have closed registration and formed teams. The season typically starts in the beginning of April and ends just after Memorial Day.
