The season will start in April with playoffs running into July. This season will feature some exciting changes to the league that will help us further develop Bolingbrook's youth for the next step in their baseball or softball experience. Bolingbrook Tee-Ball offers three divisions:


Little Tees
For kids that will be 4 years old. This is a great way to introduce your little one to the game of baseball. Taking place on Friday evenings your little one will learn the basics of Tee-Ball/baseball by playing structured games and having tons of fun along the way!

Tee-Ball
For kids aged 5 and 6. Tee-Ball is designed to focus on the development of all players and promote an environment of fun and Sportsmanship. Our big change this year for Tee-Ball is that we will introduce a coach pitch element to game. Here is how it will work: The first three games of the season will be played as it has in the past, players will put the ball in play with the use of a tee. The remaining games will use a coach pitcher. The batter will have three tries to get the ball in play, at that point a tee will be brought out for them to hit from. There will be a post-season playoff system to determine the champion. The Tee-Ball Classic game will be the championship game of the playoffs.

Coach Pitch/Kid Pitch

For kids aged 7 and 8. This division was formerly called Coach Pitch. Beginning with the 2020 season, it will be known as Coach Pitch/Kid Pitch. As you can tell by the name we will be introducing a kid pitch element to the game!

The first three games will be played with a certified coach pitcher as it has been in years past. Beginning with the 4th game there will be kid pitchers. There will be certain instances where a coach pitcher may be brought in to assist. We will be using proper rest periods and inning counts for the pitchers. There will be post-season playoff system to determine the champion. We are also introducing a new All-Star game this year. On February 29th, there will be a player evaluations held at the Bolingbrook Community Center.
