What is Basic Ball Plus?
Warren Park Little League Basic Ball Plus is an advanced version of Basic Ball, allowing the players to demonstrate a higher level of skill. The smaller rosters and quicker pace of play keeps the players engaged and active during their one-hour games. Through the Basic Ball Plus season, players will advance from hitting underhand soft-toss to overhand coach pitching. Players will rotate through the various positions, gaining an understanding of the responsibilities of that position. In addition to gaining the physical skills of baseball, Basic Ball Plus emphasizes the important social skills related to teamwork and sportsmanship.. Since introduced at Warren Park Little League in 2020, Basic Ball Plus has been enjoyed by hundreds or players and their families.
