Baseball, Softball & T-ball Youth Recreation Leagues

You can register your child at any of our three community centers or at the Parks and Recreation office now through April 1 for our Youth Baseball Recreation Leagues. The league is open to 5 to 12 year olds, and the participating child’s birth certificate is required at registration. All games are played at Heritage Park Baseball Fields. The cost to play in any of the youth recreation leagues is $35 per child and includes a shirt, hat and team picture.

New this year for the 3 to 4 year olds, we are offering “Blastball”.  This fun alternative to traditional T-ball uses a “honking” base to entertain younger players; adding excitement to the game. It concentrates on developing a child’s running, hitting, catching, fielding and throwing skills.
