WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TBALL AND SOFTBALL?

· In simple terms, Teeball is a modified version of softball for our youngsters to learn the basics.

· The biggest difference is that players hit the ball off a stationary tee. Most people are familiar with this version - almost everyone played it at school at some stage! Players in the U8s and U10s competition play Teeball.

· All other competitions play softball which is hitting off a person who is pitching the ball to a catcher. There are varying versions of softball, for example there are different sized balls depending on your age - but this is all you need to know at a high level.
