Tempe Parks and Recreation will host a free Aquafina Major League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run competition for local girls and boys on Sunday, May 3 from 8 a.m. to noon at the ball fields at Kiwanis Park, Mill Avenue and All-America Way.
Pitch, Hit & Run is the official skills competition of Major League Baseball designed to provide youngsters with an opportunity to compete, free of charge, in a competition that recognizes individual excellence in core baseball and softball skills.
Competitors are divided into four age divisions: 7/8, 9/10, 11/12, 13/14, and have the chance to advance through four levels of competition, including Team Championships at Major League ballparks and the National Finals at the 2009 MLB All-Star Game.
The individual Pitching, Hitting and Running Champions, along with the All-Around
Champion in each age group at the local competition, will advance to the sectional level of competition in Scottsdale.
All participants must bring a copy of their birth certificate and fill out a registration and waiver form prior to the start of the competition. Forms will be available on site. For more information, please contact coordinator Bobbi Jones with Tempe Parks and Recreation at 480-350-5267.
