Spreckels Park Little League: Welcome

T-Ball - Tee Ball Baseball is for boys and girls 5-6 years olds who want to learn the fundamentals of hitting and fielding. In Tee Ball, players hit a ball off a batting tee. Rules of the game may be varied to accommodate the need for teaching. The primary goals of Tee Ball are to instruct children in the fundamentals of baseball and to allow them to experience the value of teamwork. Rosters may be composed of between 12 and 20 players. No live pitching is permitted in this division. The diamond used is a 60-foot diamond.

Farm -  A natural extension of the T-Ball program with the T removed and coaches pitching to batters.

For players ages 7-8

Minors -  Minor League Baseball programs for boys and girls is operated within each division for younger players with less experience. The minor league may be players ages 8-11. By local option, some of the 9-year-olds could "play down" in the coach pitch division, and some of the 8-year-olds could "play up." This is entirely the choice of the SPLL board of directors. Rosters will be composed of between 10-13 players. A 60-foot diamond is used and the pitching distance is 46 feet. This is the start of  competition helping players establish and enhance skills. Players control more aspects of the game here.
