Goal

The goal of the AAA division in Simsbury Little League is for the players to begin to apply those fundamentals learned at the lower levels into more advanced game situations. Here, players are introduced to the initial stages of strategy (i.e. bunting and stealing) while learning the skills specific to each position. At this level there is also much more expected out of the pitcher and catcher.

The open substitution policy is also still in effect at AAA, perpetuating the ideal that, over the course of the season, each player has an opportunity to play each position in the field and bat in each spot in the batting order. As the season continues, however, most managers begin to place the players in those positions that allow them the best opportunity to grow and succeed. The AAA season concludes with a playoff tournament.

Schedule

AAA games will be Tuesday evening, Thursday evening, and Saturday afternoon/evening. Practices will be Sunday and 1 weeknight.

Equipment

SLL provides jerseys and hats. All players should have baseball pants and a belt, a glove, cleats and water bottle.

Umpires

These games are umpired by trained youth umpires.
