JUNIOR T-BALL DIVISION

jr. Co-Ed T-Ball is designed as an entry level to baseball. There are 8 players per team, and the focus is on having FUN while learning the basics: throwing, catching, fielding, hitting and team play. Softer baseballs and regulation aluminum bats are used, and the field is set up with three bases on a smaller baseball field with a Tee for players to hit off. Volunteer coaches (parents) are on the field to help the players learn the rules and coordinate play.

Space is limited so please register early!

COACHING VOLUNTEERS

RYBL is the best youth baseball association in Etobicoke because of the dedication of its parent Coach Volunteers. Please consider expressing your interest in coaching or assisting in your player’s registration application.

All coaches are supported with initial training and continuous group communication to ensure you and your team’s success on the field.

If you are open to the possibility of coaching, even as an assistant, and have questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out!

PLAY WITH REQUESTS

Please note that only “reciprocal” play-with requests will be considered, per the play-with policy on the RYBL Website, if received prior to April 1.

This means that if your player would like to play with another child, he/she must select that player on their Registration, and vice-versa.

Multiple play-with requests and non-reciprocal play-with requests will NOT be considered.

Thank you for your interest in RYBL.

Please reach out if you have any questions.
