GRAA Baseball Presents: The Inaugural Indoor Wiffle Ball League
GRAA Baseball is thrilled to announce the launch of our new, indoor winter wiffle ball league. Wiffle ball has surged in popularity across the U.S., evolving from a simple backyard version of baseball to a game with leagues of its own, from local rec to the pros.
Whether your child is a seasoned baseball player or new to the game, this league promises fun, friendly competition, and a great way to stay active during the winter months.
Who: Any child in grades 2 through 8; must either reside in Glen Ridge or be enrolled in GR schools.
What: We’ll form small teams to play casual weekly games, likely 4-5 players per team depending on registration numbers and gym availability. We’ll have more details to share on game format, divisions and teams closer to the start of the season. You can request a teammate, and we will try our best to
accommodate requests, but we cannot guarantee anything.
When: 8-week season to begin the first weekend in January through mid-March (avoiding holiday weekends). We’re aiming for Sunday afternoons, but may need to make some adjustments depending on registration numbers and gym availability. If participating teams agree to reschedule and we have
gym/personnel availability, other days of the week are a possibility.
Where: Ridgewood Avenue School. No travel – this is an in-town league only.
How: Register here no later than Sunday, Dec. 22. The fee for the season is $80 per player. Players will receive wiffle ball league t-shirts (which parents can personalize on their own if you like) and will not need to bring any equipment – we’ll supply the wiffle bats, balls and strike zones.
We’re also looking for parent volunteers to help run the sessions. If you’re interested in volunteering, please let us know when you register or email us at baseball@graa.org. We will have a league official on site but we’ll need parent volunteers to help run the program. Let’s be honest, we all love wiffle ball
and maybe this will lead to a parents league…
Thanks and let’s play (wiffle) ball!
