INFORMATION ABOUT TEAMS IN OUR ORGANIZATION
Blastball
Blastball is our U5 program. Minor Ball supplies an Otters t-shirt (to keep), general team equipment, and basic drill information to be used by the program. We rely solely on parent volunteers to run drills and mini games between our own players within this division. This group has practice once per week, typically on Thursday evenings in Otterville between mid May - mid July. There is no extra travel for this program. Children need to have their own gloves and come dressed appropriately for physical activity.
U7
The U7 program, sometimes called Rookie, is an entry level program with modified rules. All players are divided into teams prior to the start of the season with an assigned coach. This group has 1 scheduled practice, and 1 game per week. They play on Tuesday evenings and Saturday mornings. Teams travel within the South Oxford Softball League to play teams from other towns. At this age players get the opportunity to hit off of coach pitching, or a tee during games. Runners can only advance 1 base at a time. The defensive team is given the opportunity to make plays in the field but outs and runs are not recorded. Each inning every player gets a chance to hit. Players need to have a glove, helmet with cage, and a bat. The organization does not provide bats, but we do provide balls, tee, and catchers equipment for the team to share.
U9
The U9 program is still an entry level program with modified rules. At U9 teams are divided into separate boys and girls teams that play in separate divisions of the South Oxford Softball League. This group has 2 scheduled games per week. The team will typically have 1-2 weeks to practice before games start. Once games start it is up to the coach to schedule any extra practices. They play on Tuesday evenings and Saturday mornings. Teams travel within the South Oxford Softball League to play teams from other towns. At this age players get the opportunity to pitch to the opposing team. Runners can advance a maximum of 2 bases at a time. A regular defense is played (3 outs to end the inning or 5 runs scored). The score is kept at these games. Players need to have a glove, helmet with cage, and a bat. The organization does not provide bats, but we do provide balls, pitching mask, and catchers equipment for the team to share.
