Farm (coach-pitched) baseball - Ages 7-8
This is the registration page for farm (also known as "coach-pitched") baseball players whose seventh birthday falls in May, June, July or August of 2010. All other farm league players should register via a separate link at the NESLL home page.
Coaches pitch using safety balls. This is a non-competitive division with no player assessment, draft, playoffs, or scores. Players have the following options for team assignment:
- Indicate a team preference on your registration.
- Have NESLL place you on team
- Register as a group of 13 players or less with a designated coach.
Coach-pitch managers contact their players in mid-to-late March. Practices typically begin in early April.
Coaches at this level are required to give every player equal playing time, and players must play every position an equal number of times. Score is not kept and games are self-officiated. Each player bats every inning, regardless of how many outs are recorded. Games typically last three or four innings.
The league provides shirts, hats, bats, balls, bases, helmets and a tee to each team. A parent or guardian is expected to attend each practice or game. Cleats aren't required. Children should not wear metal cleats or jewelry. Coach-pitch teams often play on fields that don't have dugouts or backstops. You should obtain a 5-gallon paint bucket (preferable) or a milk crate for your child to sit on during games, and to haul gear and trash after games. They're available at hardware and paint stores.
Rob McCullough Scholarships are available to players requiring financial assistance. If you will be requesting a scholarship, please complete the registration process. You will be able to request a scholarship as you register. When you reach the payments page simply click the Pay in Person button. Please contact the NESLL registrar registrar@nesll.net or a NESLL board member for more information. Parents of scholarship recipients are requested to volunteer for NESLL functions.
Family Plan: $250 maximum out-of-pocket. If you are registering players whose total combined fees exceed $250, then you qualify for NESLL's Family Plan. Go through the registration process for each player, and when you reach the payment screen, choose the "Pay In Person" option. Then mail your $250 payment to NESLL, 4616 25th Avenue NE #524, Seattle, WA 98105.
