Fall 2025 Registration Information

Welcome to DAYAA’s Teeball!  We are a non-profit recreational league that serves the Derry Area and surrounding communities. Our mission is to foster the physical and mental development of our youth. Teeball is a sport designed to introduce kids to the basics of learning how to throw, catch, and bat in a fun team atmosphere. Participants get active while learning useful sports skills and making friends. Teeball is co-ed program. 

~Teeball is appropriate for youth ages 3 - 6. For our 5 & 6 year olds with some prior experience, DAYAA offers a 6u division. Please check out the baseball section of our website for more information regarding 6u.

** Listening skills are important for any team sport, including teeball. If a younger player (3-5 years old) cannot listen or follow directions, you might want to consider waiting until they are more mature before placing them in what could be a frustrating situation. Better to wait and have a good experience, than rush it and turn them off from baseball.

What to expect: Teeball is the opportunity to build your child's love of baseball.  This will include unique ways to have practice, while teaching the core fundamentals: Throwing, Running, Catching, Hitting, Fielding. Your child will typically have 2-3 interactions with their team a week. Each team will be anywhere between 8-12 players based on registration numbers.  There will be a mix of practices and games.  Practices and games are no longer than 1 hour.  By the end of tee ball, a player should be able to properly grip a bat and hit a ball off a tee, run the bases in correct order, generally know how to field a ground ball, throw a ball correctly (e.g. “step and throw”), and have a general knowledge of the positions (first base, second base, shortstop, etc.). 

Where are the games and practices held? We utilize the teeball field at the DAYAA Baseball Complex at 1 Huston Street, Derry. 

When will we hear about what team my child is on?  Registration will be begin July 25th and close August 17th. Teeball teams will be created and announced by August 27th. 

When will practices and games start?  Teeball practice will start September 2nd or 3rd, depending on your team.  Games will start the week of September 22nd and will run through mid-October.  Typically, the first few weeks of the season are two practices during the week (evenings) and one Saturday morning/early afternoon.  Games follow the same time schedule.  

Who coaches the kids and what do I do if I'd like to help?  All coaches and team parents are volunteers. If you are interested, please indicate that when you register your child. All coaches and team parents must have the required clearances before the start of the season. Please see the “Become A Coach” section on www.dayaabs.org.  If we do not have enough coaches, we will not be able to have a season.

What equipment does my child need?  Kids should have their own baseball glove, teeball bat and batting helmet. We will ensure all children are able to play regardless of ability to purchase equipment.

What does my child need to wear for practices and games?  For practices it is recommended to wear a t-shirt and long pants in case there is any sliding.  The pants could be sweat pants, baseball pants or anything they are comfortable in.  Each child gets a team t-shirt and hat to be worn to games, and they can wear the same type of pants as described for practices.  

Payment: $35 per player. Check, cash or credit card will be accepted. Check made payable to DAYAA with your child’s first and last name in the memo.
