Little Hitters

Little Hitters is a great opportunity for kids to learn about the basics of t-ball and the basic motor skills necessary to play. This is an instructional clinic, not a league. No teams will be formed. This is a parent-child interactive program, so each child is required to have a parent/guardian join them in the program. Please provide your child with their own baseball mitt.
