BASEBALL PROGRAMS

T-Ball (co-ed) - Ages 5-6

T-Ball is your child’s introduction to baseball and Sammamish Little League. No prior experience is expected or required. The T-Ball program is focused on teaching basic baseball skills such as fielding and batting in a casual environment. Outs are not recorded and every child plays on both offense and defense in every inning. We will attempt to place players on teams grouped roughly by neighborhood elementary schools. If you would like to request a “buddy” for your player to be assigned on a team with, please coordinate with the other family before registering, as we can only guarantee “Mutual Buddy Requests.”

Our T-Ball program is co-ed. Girls have another option to play on the all girls “A” level/T-ball softball program. More information about that program is HERE.
