Age 6 -- Shetland 6 Division (T-Ball) focuses on instruction of beginning players. Tryouts are held for ages 6 and up to help ensure teams are competitively balanced. All players will be placed on a team whether they attend tryouts or not. Objectives include teaching players how to properly swing a bat, catch, throw and run the bases; and encouraging all players to experience different positions throughout the season. An umpire will be provided throughout the season for Shetland 6 games, and a competitive Shetland 6 post-season tournament will be scheduled, weather permitting.
