Munising 4-H Baseball and Sotball Club Registration Open

Munising Baseball/Softball program, formerly with Alger Parks and Recreation, is in the process of transitioning from Little League to 4-H. The former board members are eagerly embracing this transition and are steadfast in their dedication to assisting everyone through the process. For over a century, 4-H has stood as a cornerstone of youth development nationwide, endorsed by the USDA for its commitment to promoting healthy living. The 4-H, healthy living mission is dedicated to empowering youth and families with access to opportunities that foster optimal physical, social, and emotional well-being. Registration for Munising’s baseball, softball, and T-ball teams is now open for players aged 5 to 14 as of January 1, 2024. All skill levels are encouraged to participate, and registration will be available from March 1 to March 31, 2024. No enrollments will be accepted after the March 31 deadline. The season, spanning six weeks, will commence in May and conclude in June, with specific days and times to be determined. The registration costs vary by category: T-ball players are priced at $20, Minors, Majors, and Girls Softball at $35, and Juniors at $40. Notably, this year introduces a family cap of $55, meaning families will only need to pay fees for the first two players from the same household. Families registering more than two players will only be required to pay the two highest registration fees, with additional players being free of charge.
