Blastball is an excellent introductory game for future softball and baseball players (ages 3-4).  It allows for more action to keep a young child's short attention span.  More kids get to be involved which helps them retain interest in the T-Ball / Softball concept.  The game is safe and uses a foam bat and ball with no gloves required.  Blastball teaches the basic T-Ball and softball fundamentals of hitting, throwing, and fielding while emphasizing the importance of teamwork and sportsmanship.

 

Blastball will run for 6 weeks with one game per week held on Saturday morning starting the first Saturday of March.  Each game will last 45 minutes, games are "drop dead" when the timer goes off.

Parents are welcome to join in the fun.

 

Playing Field:

Equipment:

All players must wear a team t-shirt, supplied by CV United Softball. Bats and balls are provided. Softball gloves are optional.  The game ball is foam rubber and will be safe for kids to play without gloves.
