The 13U division, formerly known as "Pee Wee", is for kids who are 12 and 13 years of age. 13U is the first division in which players begin to play by similar rules to those of the Major Leagues (with obvious Fair-Play modifications). Lead-offs and stealing bases are permitted, and pitchers use the same techniques that Major League pitchers do to hold runners on base. All players remain in the batting lineup and rotate equally in the field.
Age Group: 12 - 13 years old (in the current calendar year)
Session Length: 120 Minutes
Roster Size: Approximately 15 players
Required: Glove, Batting Helmet, Bat, Hat (supplied), Jersey (supplied), Long Pants
Recommended: Athletic Support (i.e. jock or jill), Baseball Pants, Cleats
Optional: Batting Gloves
NOTE: Baseball hats and jerseys should be worn to each practice or game.
This season we have allowed for two (2) time slots in the schedule to be used as practice slots or a make-up slot in the event that a previously scheduled game has been cancelled due to weather. A scheduled session may be a practice or a game. We have also planned for 3 weeks of house league team practices to be held on Saturdays throughout the summer. Details will be announced throughout the season.
There is no official warm up session, however, players should arrive at least 15 minutes before the scheduled game time to stretch and have an adequate warm-up catch.
