Parent's Guide to Tee Ball

The following was copied from the Little League International Tee Ball Parent's Guide, much of the same applies to Little League Coach Pitch as well. Benson Little League has some extra gloves and misc. gear available, please reach out for more information!

GAMES AND PRACTICES: Little League recommends that leagues hold two Tee Ball Activities (games or practices) per week. Each activity should last between 45 minutes and 1 hour and 15 minutes. Parents are strongly encouraged to stay at the field during Tee Ball activities. Little League provides each manager/coach with a curriculum of activities focused on fun, fitness, and fundamentals that can be implemented during practices and games. The curriculum, including video drills, can be accessed online at LittleLeagueU.org and at LittleLeague.org/TeeBall.

EQUIPMENT: Your local Little League program will provide each Tee Ball team with the equipment necessary for games and practices. Equipment that will be provided to each team includes helmets, bats, balls, and catcher’s equipment. Additionally, each player should be provided with a uniform shirt and hat. Items that typically need to be purchased by the parent include a glove, baseball/softball pants, and cleats. Some parents may also choose to purchase a bat for their child to use.

VOLUNTEERING: Volunteers are the backbone of every successful Little League program. Your community’s Little League program will have a wide range of volunteer opportunities available. Some common opportunities include coaching, concessions, fundraising, etc. Additionally, there are always a number of opportunities to volunteer on a one time basis such as a field work day, opening ceremonies, a fundraising event, etc. Little League encourages all parents to get involved and be an active part of your community’s Little League program.

FUNDRAISING: Many leagues will ask families to participate in a fundraiser to benefit the league. Fundraisers help leagues keep registration costs down and provide resources for improvements to the league. Many leagues have options to ensure the Little League experience at the local level is affordable for all families, and no child may be turned away from participating due to financial reasons.
