Timbits (U5, U7 and U9)

The U5/Beginner division of the Timbits Softball  is for all players who will be turning 4 & 5 in the current season. The program has several unique rules that are in place to help create a fun and active environment for skill development.  

The U5 program runs one evening per week. Each U5 team will have their one hour session on the same day every week. The hour is based on Softball Canada Lesson Plans and is split into 40 minutes of skill development and 20 minutes of a lead up game. Lead up games take an aspect of softball and turn it into a game amongst team members. U5 uses the same honking 1st base as Blast Ball.

Equipment needed:  Glove and batting helmet

The U7 division of the Timbits Softball program is for all players who will be turning 6 & 7 years old in the current season.

U7 teams will have two sessions each week. Sessions are not on fixed nights and may take place on a weekend, depending on the number of teams and the schedule for the season. These will take place at the RMSL ball diamonds at 9th Av. and Broad St North.  Sessions are 1.5 hours long and consist of 45 minutes of practice and 45 minutes of modified game play. U7 will use the same honking 1st base as Blastball.
