Bluejay Tot-Ball
Bluejay Tot Ball Rules
An introduction to baseball and softball for ages 3-5 years. Equipment used is a rubber ball and bat, which is issued to coaches by Bondurant Little League. Kids will be need a good pair of running shoes for games. Shirts will be distributed by Bondurant Little League.
Games:
All games will played at the Bondurant Recreational Sports Complex (BRSC) on Saturday Mornings from May-June 6; weeks in total.
Home Team will take the field first; visitors are at bat first (home team is listed last on the schedule)
Games will last 3 innings (approximately 45 minutes)
After the game, players and coaches will cross the field and shake hands
Cancellation of games will be handled by Bondurant Little League. If a game is cancelled the league will determine if a makeup game will be played
At Bat:
Coaches may want to have a name tag for each child so parents can call each child by their name
Have a parent on ALL bases (parent must have completed background check with Bondurant Little League)
Have a parent or coach in the dugout with the kids to line them up in the batting order.
The next batter can be waiting on deck outside the dugout.
Each player swings until they hit the ball
After the players gets a hit they run to 1st base and then stop. Players will only advance one base at a time.
NO STRIKES, NO OUTS, NO SCORE
If a player doesn't want to bat, run, etc. the coach can assist by running with them.
Last batter each 1/2 inning runs around all the bases (home run) and the other players on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd run to home plate.
Rotate batting position throughout the season so each player can have the opportunity to bat last so they can run around each base all at once.
On Field:
All players line up on the Pitcher's Mound
Have 2 coaches on Pitcher's Mound (1 to keep kids in line and the other to help each player know who gets the next hit ball)
The 1st player in line retrieves the hit ball and places it on the tee. Don't try to tag them out.
After player places the ball on the tee, that player goes to the dugout to cheer their team on and gets ready to bat next inning.
Additional:
Please encourage your parents to purchase treat tickets from the BRSC concession stand. All proceeds from the concession stand go right back to The Bondurant Little League.
We'd also like to encourage you to schedule a meet and greet before the season, and maybe plan some additional socialization time. This is an introduction to Little League and many families may not know one another and Tot-Ball is a great time to start relationships that will continue to group right on up through Majors baseball and softball
Pictures will be set by League and information will be sent to coaches to communicate with team
