Youth Baseball and Softball

Take part in America's favorite pastime! The MRD summer ball programs do not conflict with the spring soccer program. Kids will learn teamwork, eye-hand coordination and sportsmanship. League fees include the cost of uniform shirts that all participants get to keep at season's end. The MRD summer Baseball & Softball Programs are perfect for both first timers and kids who have played before. Program fee assistance are available to children who qualify.
