Tee Ball
The primary ages for players in the Tee Ball Division are Baseball Age 4 and 5.
The purpose of the Tee Ball Division is to focus on fun and fundamentals, providing an enjoyable introductory experience to the game of baseball. Boys and girls are taught the importance of teamwork and sportsmanship, as well as the fundamentals of hitting, throwing, and fielding and are introduced to basic game rules. Batters hit off a stationary tee and there are no strikeouts. Fielders begin to learn to stop balls and throw to bases. Score is not kept and the kids bat and field every inning, regardless of the number of outs made or runs scored.
Tee Ball practices and games last approximately 1 hour each.

Intermediate Machine Pitch
Intermediate Machine Pitch will be comprised of Baseball Age 6 and 7 year olds and will be a machine-pitch format.
See IMP Rules Here
Note: One season of Rookie League at WCWAA or equivalent will be a pre-requisite for 6 year old eligibility in the Intermediate Machine Pitch division.
Working on the premise that Rookie League developed basic swing techniques and fielding fundamentals, this league will focus on making sure a player is comfortable in the batter’s box with a consistent pitch and/or has the opportunity to experience several different positions of play while on defense. We feel this will be easier to accomplish with players participating among players of similar age and skill. As is the case with Rookie League, practices should be a priority over games.
The pitching machine will be set on 4-5 which translates to approximately 30 mph
