T-Ball is where the life-long interest with baseball begins. Young players, aged five to six, may be take the field for the first time with their first uniform and team hat. It’s a moment in time in small towns like Hingham and all over the country. And it’s about baseball, a game that has been engrained in millions of Americans, indeed a part of the American fabric.

The T-Ball game is designed to introduce the fundamentals of baseball with a focus on fun, simple experience and teamwork for our young members of the community. It is a great experience for kids and parents and grandparents. Children in a group, can easily merge into the game with the support of parents nearby. Kids want their parents to be involved, and T-Ball is the perfect game for supportive friends and family.

In a T-Ball game with coaches (parents) at every base and in the outfield, players get to experience time in every position. Small rosters give each kid a chance to touch the ball, hit off a T, run the bases, field and throw. There is no pitching since the coach places the ball on a Tee at home plate so everyone hits. This is not the competitive sport which will appear in their lives in a few years so we don't keep score. Every kid should get the thrill of scoring a run or being called safe at a base.

Little League has spent many years developing T-Ball and this part of the program continues to grow every season. As a part of the Hingham community we want our youngest residents and families to feel welcome and hope this will be a wonderful intoduction to a great sport. Have a blast, play with your hearts and souls and enjoy these wonderful years. The rewards will be priceless.
