SUMMER BASEBALL SEASON
Development
NDG Baseball is dedicated to developing young athletes through the sport of baseball. We strive to teach the fundamentals of the game in a safe and fun environment, so that all players can develop to their full potential. We believe our sport is for children of all ages and skill levels and it's never too "late" to try something new.
Baseball involves a variety of skills, from throwing and catching to hitting and fielding. Players must develop these skills in order to be successful on the field. For 11U and up, pitching and catching are two positions requiring specific skill, all players are encouraged to practice and develop these skills to be game ready.
Age group are defined by Baseball Quebec and are based on birth year. For the purpose of the baseball season, your child is considered the age they are turning in 2026. Ex: A player born on either Jan. 1, 2014 or Dec. 31, 2014 is considered 12 for the 2026 season.
NOTE: Despite being commonly referred to as U# instead of #U, please note that BQ uses the #U format, meaning Age-and-under... if your player is "9U" aged, that means they are "9U/9-and-under", not "U9/Under 9" (Little League uses the Under 9 format, which means players aged 7 and 8.

At this level each child needs to be accompanied by a parent on the field at all times for both safety and logistical purposes. Kids practice baseball fundamentals with their parents and play brief scrimmages. There are no formal teams or games at the 4-5, and 6 level, while RC7 has regular scrimmages. This is a great introduction to baseball that both parent and child can enjoy together. Parents do not need to have any baseball experience.
