There seem to be quite a few girls in the T-Ball and Coach-Pitch leagues. Then, they "graduate" to softball, which is quite popular in high school and college.

I think this is the first time I've seen girls playing T-Ball. But it's been a long time since I've seen a T-Ball game. My youngest granddaughter (12) is a terrific softball pitcher but I don't recall her playing T-Ball as the 2 grandsons did.

Today, I took in a couple of baseball games for the younger set. This
was my first experience with "T-Ball".  They didn't appear to keep
score, but everyone participated and got a lot of exercise.

First, the girls wear pink helmets.

The kids do hit the ball, usually on the first attempt, so the
photographer has to be quick.

Baseball Moms sometimes stand out in the crowd.  One of these had a
young baby in a front sling, while the other had hair that was hard to
miss.

My grandson is the coach of a "Coach-Pitch" team.  Here, I caught him in
a strategy meeting with a hitter.

And one can catch an action shot in the Coach-Pitch league.

All with the Oly E-1 and the Leica Summicron-R 50mm
