PeeWee Division (Ages 3-4) **NEW**

The BFP PeeWee Division offers a non-competitive softball introduction for girls aged 3-4 years old (based on your child's age as of January 1st of the year they will be playing). This division is NEW to Benicia Fastpitch and will focus on introducing girls to the sport in a weekly clinic lesson, rather than games. Practices will start a few weeks prior to opening day with an average of 2 clinics per week, through Closing Day. No experience is necessary, we will teach the basic fundamentals and have fun. Girls will hit off a tee, learn how to run bases and how to catch and throw a ball. This age group will only need volunteer coaches to help run stations, not managers. They will also be introduced to guest coaches throughout the season brought in by the league to introduce the players to new skills. This division uses Safety softballs which are soft and have a sponge center.

***Please note for this division NO teams will be formed, all registered players in this division will meet weekly for clinic style practices and be divided into small groups***

**** If enough players do NOT register all fees will be refunded upon cancelation
