tee-ball

Beginner baseball variant

Tee-ball is a simplified version of baseball for young children, typically ages four to seven.

Instead of a pitched ball, batters hit from a stationary rubber tee at home plate, making contact easier for beginners still developing hand-eye coordination.

The game introduces basic baseball skills without the difficulty of tracking a moving ball.
