Just wanted to see what ur thinking for tonight?
Me:
We don’t do anything fancy. A little practice and three innings of a game, all t-ball. Is that what you mean?
Commish:
Yep
We started throwing to our kids. So if u want to try with some. That's fine. If not that's fine too
We started with a couple kids in game 3. But now all the kids are doing it. 5 pitches and then to a tee. We go fast and I'll only have 8 there tonight.
What time do u want to start the game? I like to tell my team so that grandparents and people like that don't have to sit around for awhile
Me:
6:15 is fine. I still have kids hitting the tee itself, so we’re going to continue working on that.
Are you doing that the whole game?
Commish:
Yeah. We do it the whole game
It's good to stretch the kids abilities. I have a kid with a serious disability (he won't be there tonight) but he's even hit the ball when pitched.
It's totally ur call when u want to introduce it
Or if u ever even want to
Me:
Got it. See you tonight.

Don’t want to make people sit around, but you’re pitching to 4- and 5-year-olds. The name of this sport is TEE ball.
The oh so blurred line between tee ball and coach pitch... but the quicker they are off the tee, the quicker father's can live vicariously through the kids...
