EVERYTHING IS ON WEDNESDAYS Practice/Play format
Get your introduction to America’s pastime at the West Toledo YMCA! With practice/play format one night a week on Wednesday nights, participants ages 3 to 4 will learn the basics of baseball while making new friends!
Bring your gloves, and we supply bats and helmets, but you are welcome to bring your equipment if you have it. If you do not have a glove, we will have extras for you to use.
A practice/play format league is a type of youth sports league structure where each session typically includes both a practice portion and a game or scrimmage portion — all happening on the same day.
Key Characteristics:
- Practice + Game in One Session: Players first participate in a brief, focused practice (usually 20–30 minutes), and followed immediately by a short game or scrimmage (20–30 minutes).
- Same Day Format: Practices and games are not held on separate days — everything is combined into a single session.
- Development-Focused: This format emphasizes learning fundamental skills and rules in a fun, low-pressure environment.
- Ideal for Young Age Groups: Often used in beginner leagues (e.g., ages 3–4), where attention spans are shorter and weekly commitments need to be minimal.
Example:
A Wednesday T-ball league for Ages 3-4-year-olds might run from 5:00–6:00 PM. The first 30 minutes are spent practicing throwing, catching, and hitting. The last 30 minutes are a friendly, coach-pitched game against another team.
