Introduction To The Blue Devil Way

The introduction to the Blue Devil way includes teaching our 8U team commitment, character and the fundamentals of the game. We’ll be preaching these core values alongside having fun, being competitive and practicing good sportsmanship through every aspect of the game.

Along with an introduction to the rules of the game, we will be working on fundamentals—specifically focusing on throwing mechanics, sliding, hitting mechanics and base running skills. Uniform expectations and practice routines will be discussed early and often.
