Baseball

Clay PAL offers recreational baseball for ages 4-19.5 in both the spring and fall.  Our spring season runs February through May and our fall season runs September through November.  Clay PAL is a member of District 4 of the Florida Babe Ruth League.  Recreational baseball is all about kids having fun and learning to play baseball. The goals are teaching baseball fundamentals, teamwork, and sportsmanship.
 

Competition is a healthy part of recreational baseball, but the focus is on developing players in a positive environment. For players interested in more competitive levels of play, Clay PAL also offers Advanced Baseball and All-Star programs (any recreational player may try out).  Practices for the season will be tentatively held at Tanglewood Park in Orange Park.  Clay PAL baseball teams also play against opponents from other local area leagues.


The divisions are based on the League Age as well as skill level of a child. The League Age is the age your child will be on May 1 of the season year.


T-Ball Division

The T-Ball division is for kids that are league age 4-6 playing for the first time or still learning the fundamentals of how to hit, throw, and run the bases the correct way.
