North Van Central Introduces Play Ball!

THE PLAY BALL! PROGRAM is a new way of introducing the sport of Baseball to children. This program is patterned after informal playground games which teach all the basic skills for ALL players and skill levels.  It also provides parents/coaches the necessary tools to teach these skills and have fun with their child/team. The child will experience excitement, enjoyment and success. It is a weekly hour of FUN and LOTS OF ACTION. Participants will go home at the end of the night happy and tired, while improving their fitness level.

(The PLAY BALL! Program will be used in place of T-Ball for 5 & 6 year olds).


For information regarding the Children's Fitness Tax Credit go to:

Children's Fitness Tax Credit website


Grants are available for families in need from one of two sources:
Athletics for Kids and KidSport (select "How to Apply").

Please complete application forms and submit them with your registration if applicable. Players will not, however, be denied participation if they are unable to afford the fees.

Challenger Division
Youth Volunteers Needed!


The Challenger Division is the Little League division designed solely for the cognitively and physically challenged kids in our community, to enjoy the benefits of Little League participation, in a totally fun atmosphere. Each participant is assigned an able-bodied "Buddy", who assists by leading, helping and mentoring each player. This program has been around since the late 80?s, but was only formed on the North Shore two years ago. All games are at Delbrook Park every Saturday morning at 10AM, from mid April until mid June.

We are currently looking for motivated, volunteer driven, leaders of the youth in our community to become "Buddies" for the 2012 season. School credits for volunteering of interest to you? If that fits your vision, we would love to hear from you as soon as possible.
