• T-Ball is a team sport that is very similar to
the game of baseball.
• T-Ball is used as a way of helping develop
T-BALL hand/eye coordination and ball skills.
• The main difference between T-Ball and
baseball is that, in baseball a pitcher
pitches the ball towards the batter, whilst in
T-Ball the batter hits the ball off a tee which
is stationary.

defeat another by scoring more runs.
• Teams are made up of between 5 and 7
players.
• When batting, each player is required to
wear a helmet.
