Dublin Youth Athletics 

Rookie Coach Pitch League

The rookie coach pitch league will replace the Tee-Ball league effective with the 2008 season.  The structure will be similar to the Tee-Ball program of the past, with one notable difference.  Coaches will pitch to these kindergartners first before using a tee.  Players will get 4 pitches to put the ball in play.  If it is not put in play, the ball is placed on a tee.

Pre-registration is encouraged. Click here to register online.

Sign-up application forms for next season will be available mid-December.

Program Eligibility

Participants must be in Kindergarten during the current school year.  Participation in the program is open to boys and girls who attend Dublin City Schools or who reside within the City of Dublin or reside within the Dublin City School District.
