CMBA is excited to launch the Jr. Rookie "Mini-Bandit" Baseball Division for the 2019 season. Why Mini-Bandits? Because this division will be coached and instructed by Paul Mrazek and the Senior Bandit players for the duration of the season. It will also act as a coach mentorship program for those that wish to become future coaches.
- The Jr. Rookie "Mini-Bandits" Division is open to players age 6/7 years old.
- Players are randomly placed on teams. Cranbrook Minor Ball Association will attempt to accommodate as many team mate requests as possible, but they are not guaranteed.
- Players will receive a team shirt and hat as their uniform. CMBA will provide equipment to each team including balls, catchers gear, and bats. Players must bring their own glove, and batting helmet. Players must wear a protective cup, sweat pants/athletic pants/baseball pants, but no jeans or shorts are allowed. Players may wear rubber cleats or running shoes.
- Nights of play will be Monday & Wednesday (Time TBD). Teams will have 2 nights of play per week throughout the season. Players are encouraged to arrive early for proper warm up.
The goal of Jr. Rookie "Mini-Bandit" Baseball is to build foundational skills to increase each player's ability to hit, throw, catch, and build a better awareness of game play. Our goal is to provide a safe, fun, and instructional environment for kids to learn the FUNdamentals and enjoy the game of baseball.
