Registration is about to start for the city of Valley Grande’s youth baseball and softball season.

Valley Grande Sports Coordinator Cody Massey said that two registration days will be held at Valley Grande City Hall — Friday, Jan. 20 from 5-8 p.m. and Saturday, Feb. 21 from 9 a.m.-noon. The price is $40 for T-ball, which is for children 4-6, and $50 for baseball and softball, which are for children 7-18. Children must turn 4 by May 1, 2017 to be eligible for T-ball.

The price to participate covers the cost of uniform, pants, jersey, hat, socks and belt. The child will need to be present to register, so that he can be measured for his uniform. Massey said uniforms will be ordered the week after registration.

Children will also need a copy of their birth certificate and insurance card to register.

Registration packets will be available at Valley Grande City Hall and Taylor Sports and Souvenirs Jan. 16-20. Packets will also be available on the city’s two registration days.

Massey said if there are enough players, he hopes for the league to join Babe Ruth Baseball.

The city is also looking for volunteer coaches. For anyone interested, a volunteer coaching application will be available on the two registration days. Practices will start in March and games will start in April.
