Blastball is an excellent introductory, simplified game to T-Ball and baseball for boys and girls. It is packed with action so it is perfect for youngsters’ short attention spans. Small teams mean more kids get to be involved in every play which helps them retain interest in the T-Ball / Baseball concept. Blastball teaches the basic T-Ball and baseball fundamentals of hitting, throwing, and fielding while emphasizing the importance of teamwork, sportsmanship and having FUN. Blastball teams have 1 practice during the week and 1 game on Saturday mornings

Little League Age: 4-6

This is a basic introduction to baseball. The players learn the fundamentals through practice and games. Players hit the ball off of a stationary tee and play in the field with coaches nearby to help with instruction. The Tee Ball division is suggested for all league age 5 year old players as well as for any first-time 6 year old players. Placement in this division is done by league age and teams are organized by the RHLL’s Player Agent and the T-Ball Commissioner. It is an instructional division where players hit off a tee rather than hit a pitched ball using Reduced Impact Force (RIF) or “safety” balls. No scores are kept, every offensive player bats each inning regardless of outs, and no player sits on defense. Players are taught the fundamentals of baseball such that they are exposed to playing positions and are taught throwing, catching, batting, defensive ready position and running the bases. T-Ball teams play games on Saturday and practice once during the week.

A-Ball is the coach pitch division. At this level, players improve their fundamental skills, sportsmanship, and teamwork. Teams are organized by the player agent and division commissioner. It is an instructional division where players hit balls pitched by a coach. Players are taught the fundamentals of baseball such that they are exposed to playing positions and are taught throwing, catching, batting, defensive ready position and running the bases. The A division is intended to be a logical transition from T-Ball to AA. Score is kept to determine when to end an inning (4 runs or 3 outs, whichever comes first), but standings are not kept. A-Ball teams play games on Saturday and practice once during the week.

Please note that all players Little League age 8+ and 7 year old players requesting to play AA must attend skill evaluations. These assessments ensure fair team placement and balanced competition.

Here's how it works:

Players are pooled into AA, AAA, or Majors divisions based on, skill level, age, experience, requested division, player development needs and available slots in each division

Managers will draft teams from these pools, selecting players best suited for each division. Some players may be considered for multiple pools, allowing managers flexibility. RHLL utilizes advanced evaluation software, Skill Shark, to gather data from coaches and league representatives, ensuring accurate and objective assessments.

Our goal is to place every player in a division where they can develop their skills, build confidence, contribute to their team and have FUN! We strive to create balanced teams. By doing so, we aim to provide an optimal environment for growth, sportsmanship, and a love for the game.
