Parent-Tot   (2 year old and Parent)

A perfect way to introduce your child to baseball skills, team activities and new friends with the support of their parent!  Short station rotation emphasizes specific skills, maintain attention and the games in the class incorporate the skills and teamwork with an overall emphasis on fun!

Farm Beginner (3-5 year olds)

This class is designed for children who have not attended the previous season, or our first timers.  We will emphasize learning the fundamentals of baseball in a fun-filled, structured environment.  Your child will learn throwing, catching, batting, base-running and fielding.  Improvements will be made in balance, agility, eye-hand coordination, flexibility and strength.

Farm Intermediate (3-5 year olds, Instructor recommended)

Progressive advancement to more fielding, footwork, advanced batting techniques and actual games incorporting positions and base-running techniques; the ultimate preparation for T-Ball

Rookie Ball (Ages 4-5)

The Next step in our series will focus on baseball oriented drills and techniques as the child's development has advanced.  More emphasis will be put on game type scenarios as we introduce them to their first tase of a baseball game.  Players will take their positions in the field and learn to make a play and throw to the correct base.  Base-running, throwing, catching, sliding and reading the coaches signals will be the primary areas of focus.

A-Ball (Ages 5-7)

The next stage is for the player who has developed skills taught in our earlier classes.  The player will practice game situations and responsibilities as well as advanced fielding techniques.  Players will face coach pitch as they continue to develop eye-hand-coordination and eye tracking skills.  We will also focus on encouraging each other with yells and screams, building the foundations of teamwork.  It would not be an uncommon sight to see our players hit the ball out of the park and dive after the ball!
