Pre-School T-ball
is a great introduction to baseball and the 3&2 program that
serves youth from preschool through high school. T-ball is for girls & boys (4-5 years old).
The ten-game season starts
the end of May and will go into mid July, depending
on rainouts. Games will be played on Weekends on area fields.
The player fee is $80 and each player will receive a uniform t-shirt,
hat and award.
All of the equipment is provided by the league,
including a batting tee, reduced injury baseballs, batting helmets
and catchers mask. Parents are needed to serve as coaches. |
3&2's Pre-School T-Ball Program is sponsored by Learning Quest. |
How are
teams formed?
Teams at 3&2 are formed within the boundaries of each of the
Shawnee Mission, Olathe, Blue Valley, Bishop Miege, St. Thomas
Aquinas, St. James and DeSoto High Schools and by the current grade level
of the players. For example, 3rd graders from the Shawnee Mission
East area play on teams formed from that area.
For the T-ball program, we understand that some children attend
preschool outside their high school attendance area. T-ball teams
can be formed from a neighborhood, a preschool, or better yet,
by where they will attend kindergarten. Once they get into kindergarten,
however, they will need to return to their proper high school attendance
area.
We recommend a team size of no more than
12 players and no fewer than 10. |
