Jakarta Youth Baseball & Softball is a collaboration between JIS Academy and PakPok Baseball. Jakarta Youth Baseball is a hub for young athletes, dedicated to fostering a love for baseball/softball and honing fundamental skills. With a focus on teamwork, sportsmanship, and personal growth, we provide a supportive platform for players to learn, compete, and create lasting memories. Join us on the diamond as we swing for the fences and slide into a world of fun and friendship! Jakarta Youth Baseball is open to boys & girls. All ability levels are welcome! 

This semester students will be practicing one time during the week and playing a game on the weekend.

(Exceptions: T-Ball will only have games & HS Baseball/Softball will only practice until Feb when the MS and HS baseball athletics season begins). 

Programs:

T-ball is a simplified form of baseball that young children play to learn the basics of the game. Instead of hitting a pitch thrown by a pitcher, children hit a baseball off of a support called a tee which makes the hitting of the ball much easier. If you would like your child to learn how to develop strong hitting, throwing and catching skills this is the game for them! 

• T-ball players must be 6 years of age and under by May 31, 2024

Machine Pitch baseball involves students hitting baseballs delivered by a machine. A machine is used to provide children a consistent pitch each time that they are at bat. Machine Pitch baseball is a great way for children to learn the fundamentals of baseball and have fun along the way! 

• Machine pitch players must be 8 years of age and under by May 31, 2024
