Per Little League International "Often a family’s first introduction to Little League®, providing a Tee Ball experience that is grounded in fun, fitness, and fundamentals is key to growing a child’s love for the game."
At Parkside, we start players 4-6 years old in Tee-Ball. We focus on safety, having fun and teaching the fundamentals of baseball, while building good sportsmanship and organized membership of a team.

Farm is a developmental division for players 5-11yr. For players 7-11yr that have not played baseball before, they must play Farm or complete a skills assessment to be considered for upper divisions.

Farm A is typically for players moving up from Tee-ball, or first time players 5-8yr. The coach pitches during games and after a few missed balls, the tee can be used.

Farm AA is typically for players that have played at least 1 year of Farm or Tee-ball, or older players new to baseball. The coach pitches at the beginning of the season and the players pitch the second half. There is no tee used during games.
