3-5 years old

King William Rec Park (Outfield of Field 1)
330 King William Park Rd - Aylett, Va 23009

Key Aspects of Blastball:
-Players per Team: Approx. 8
-How to Play: A batter is considered safe and “earns a run” if they reach the Blast Base before a defensive player fields the ball and yells “BLAST.” If a defensive player fields or catches the ball and yells “BLAST” before the batter reaches the Blast Base, the batter is out.
-Equipment: Uses a foam bat, foam ball, a “honking” base, and a tee. No gloves or helmets are required due to the soft equipment.
-Differences from T-Ball: It is faster-paced, uses just one base, and has no outs or scores, and emphasizes continuous action to keep young children engaged.
-Benefits: Develops basic motor skills, encourages teamwork, and introduces sportsmanship without competitive pressure.
Your child will be given their team jersey before their first scheduled game once registration is complete AND paid in full.
Coaching:
We are always in need of volunteer coaches. So please consider making a difference in a child's life by letting us know if you, or someone you know, would be interested in becoming a volunteer blastball coach.
*During registration, you will have the opportunity to indicate whether you would like to volunteer as a coach.
Refunds:
In order to receive a refund, a request must be made by email (parksandrec@kwc.gov) prior to Tuesday, June 23rd.
