About Little Bantam
Little Bantam is an instructional baseball league for 6 year olds. This league will build on the foundation laid in the Little Slugger league with a focus on learning the fundamentals of baseball in a positive manner. This program is designed to bridge the gap between Little Sluggers and the Bantam League. At the 6 year old level, coaches continue to pitch. Each batter will receive 7 pitches or 3 strikes. If the batter doesn’t hit the ball, the batter will hit off of a tee. Games are 4-6 innings (1:30 time limit) in length. This league will introduce 3 outs per team per inning. Scores are not kept so EVERYONE is a winner.
Practice/Game Schedule
The season will begin in early April and end in mid June. Practices are held twice a week. They will be on a weekday (the day will vary) usually beginning around 6pm and on Saturdays (time will vary). Typically teams practice for about 3 weeks.
Games will begin later in April. Teams will continue the same schedule of two activities per week. This will usually be two games (one weekday and Saturday). It will sometimes be one practice and one game.
