PLL Launches New Winter Program-Register Now!

Princeton Little League is pleased to announce our brand new winter program in partnership with the Game Time Performance Baseball Academy! 

The PLL Winter Program will strengthen our emphasis on player development by offering players the chance to improve their fundamental skills working with professional baseball coaches on a weekly basis. This is the same baseball program that we successfully partnered with for our fall ball program! 

Practices will be held at Game Time Performance Baseball Academy’s brand new indoor baseball facility in Hamilton on Sunday afternoons from January 24th-March 14th (Game Time Performance Baseball Academy’s new indoorfacility is about 10 minutes past Quaker Bridge Mall).  Practices will be organized around three age divisions.  Each age division will practice for 90 minutes with the professional coaches focusing on hitting, fielding, and pitching. Players will also be filmed while hitting and pitching, so that coaches can help them “see” how to improve their basic mechanics.

The registration fee for PLL Winter Program will be $120 for 8 practice sessions.The new winter program will be open to players between the ages of 7-12*.  Each age division group will be capped at 25 players.  Registration is on a first come first serve basis. Scholarships are available.

Princeton Special Sports Program Information
Princeton Special Sports is a not-for-profit volunteer organization that provides special needs children ages 4 through high school with the same youth sports playing opportunities that are available to typical children. The only difference between PSS and other youth sports programs is that we provide an environment specifically tailored to the needs and abilities of our players, allowing them to develop their technical, social, and competitive athletic skills on their own timetables and with the assistance of teenaged volunteer "buddies."   Click on the headline above to visit their site.
