Thank you for choosing Norwalk Babe Ruth and welcome to the 2021 Spring Baseball season! We are excited to continue our commitment to Norwalk baseball and to the community by providing the best playing experience possible. This season, we will continue our very successful "Spring Training" program which focuses on the development of skills, baseball IQ, and strength & conditioning with the goal of getting the players ready for the season. This is an opportunity for the players to learn proper hitting & throwing mechanics, posture, situational baseball, base running, etc. and to practice what they've learned before putting it to use in live games.
We typically hold 3 sessions per week each lasting about 2 hours and we do that for about 3-4 weeks. After the initial preparation and development phase we will start playing games. This is usually about 2-4 weeks before High School gets released.
FAQ's:
- Eligibility: Players who are 13 on or before May 1, 2020 are eligible as well as players who have aged out of their Little League program. Registration numbers will determine age divisions, but following our success this past spring with a combined 15U (13-15) that is our current plan.
- Evaluations: We don't offer tryouts for Jr/Sr Babe Ruth but we do offer the Spring Training program, as outlined above, which serves as a rolling evaluation for those players not playing High School baseball.
- Fields: We play 60/90 fields - same as high school. We have 4 in Norwalk: BMHS, NHMS, Roton MS & City Hall. We do not offer 50/70 as we feel our league is to prepare for high school play.
- Competition: For Jr/Sr Babe Ruth, we play a Norwalk vs Norwalk schedule as well as surrounding towns with Babe Ruth programs: Fairfield, Darien, Stamford, Weston, Wilton, Trumbull, Danbury, Newtown, Ridgefield etc.
